Château Kirwan 2021

Description

Dark chocolate powder and ripe blackcurrants on the nose. Succulent and supple on the palate, this has a nice bouncy, plush and plump feeling to it. It’s not massively expansive but does have a great mouthfeel in terms of texture and overall generosity of flavours. Tannins are fine and the juicy acidity is really to the fore here alongside some lovely floral elements. Bright and perky though still quite linear, with a nice initial impact and long finish. This should improve during ageing. Drinking Window: 2025-2045. Score – 91. (Georgina Hindle, decanter.com)
