Product Notes

Château Kirwan Charmes de Kirwan Margaux is a captivating Bordeaux blend wine originating from France. Packed with expressive flavours of blackcurrant, cherry, and plum, followed by subtle touches of vanilla, it welcomes drinkers with a vivacious aroma. The wine has a splendid, deep ruby hue that's attractive to the eye. The palate is wonderfully balanced, offering velvety tannins introducing a long and elegant finish. Often noted for its sophistication and distinction, Margaux's medium-body wine is aged in oak barrels, which enhances the overall character. It offers wine lovers a beautifully complex tasting experience that never fails to impress.

Tasting Notes

A rich, deep color that immediately announces the tone of the vintage. It appears as a highly concentrated wine. The rich, complex nose confirms this impression, with a blend of black fruit and spices such as black pepper, cinnamon and vanilla. In the mouth, the attack is at once fresh and profuse. The sense of volume continues mid-palate while velvety tannins gradually develop, giving the wine its body without ever becoming overbearing. Everything is in perfect balance. A few notes of cocoa and coffee complement he broad aromatic palette right up to the prolonged finale, supported by extremely mature tannins. While the pleasure it procures may tempt some to drink it young, I suggest waiting a few years. Indeed, everything indicates long and propitious aging.
