  • What the experts say...

    "Le 2000 de Kirwan est corsé, musclé, peu évolué, puissant et massif (ces 2 traits étant atypiques pour des vins de l'appelation). Sa robe d'un pourpre-noir opaque annonce un ensemble concentré, dense et persistant, étonnament mûr et marqué par la mâche, généreusement dôté de senteurs et de flaveurs de cassis, de bois neuf, de réglisse et de goudron."

The Schÿler family who manage the property have maintained their links with Denmark. The Schröders and the Schÿlers are Denmark's consuls in Bordeaux.The vineyard consists of a 35 hectare single block of vines, and enjoys an excellent aspect, with a high point of 20 metres on the Cantenac plateau. The vines planted include a significant proportion of Petit Verdot (10%).
