Chateau Kirwan 2024

Professionele reviews

James Suckling (94)

Good depth for the vintage, showing nice spices and black cherries. A hint of iodine and graphite. Juicy, acid-driven and bright, this has medium to full body and fresh, pleasantly chewy tannins. Pretty al dente with a long finish.

Jancis Robinson (16)

Dark ruby, purple reflections, subtle brightening on the rim. Fresh black cherries, wild dark berries, subtle notes of oak, inviting bouquet. Lean, red cherries, fresh acidity, supporting tannins, mineral, lively food wine.

The 2024 Kirwan is quite understated and discreet on the nose, opening up with blackberry, raspberry and crushed violet scents. The oak is neatly integrated. The palate is medium-bodied, fresh and juicy, with pliant tannins, more on the mid-palate than some of its peers and a harmonious, thoroughly enjoyable finish. This is classy. Kirwan looks as if it has raised its game in recent vintages and this bodes well for the future. Bravo!
