Cellar/Tasting Notes
"A solid, finely perfumed wine, the tannins giving concentration and structure... bitter chocolate character and tight texture that should age well."

Cellar/Tasting Notes
"Balanced, structured wine which brings its structure into play with the rich, but fresh fruit. The wine has good acidity, as well as some tense tannins."

Cellar/Tasting Notes
"A virile, muscular-styled effort with high tannin, the 2006 Kirwan exhibits notes of crushed rocks, roasted herbs, black cherries, and currants. Although slightly tough-textured, it possesses impressive depth and richness. If some of the disjointedness and rustic edges become sweeter and better..

Cellar/Tasting Notes
A big, powerful Margaux that should age for 20+ years, this inky purple-colored wine exhibits notes of spring flowers intermixed with blackberries, raspberries and cassis. Some lead pencil shavings and toasty oak are also present in this powerful yet at the same time very pure, textured,..
