Within the deep purple wine, it appears as though innumerable tiny violet flowers are passionately blossoming, while closer examination unveils continuous waves of enticing bayberry aromas. Despite the challenging heat and drought of the 2022 vintage, Château Kirwan, supported by its underlying clay, delivers a gratifying and triumphant performance. Showcasing a revitalizing palate, silky texture, supple tannins, and an extraordinary pH of 3.55, the wine exudes an unyielding spirit, evocative of a "steely rose." The 2022 vintage marks the earliest harvest in Château Kirwan's illustrious history (September 5th-22nd), with this daring decision ultimately cultivating a distinctive brilliance characteristic of Château Kirwan.

Deep, succulent fruit here with wide, velvety tannin structure. Polished and refined. Medium to full body. Structured and complex with a lingering finish.
93-95/100 Jeb Dunnuck
The dense purple-hued 2022 Château Kirwan just about jumps out of the glass with its intense bouquet of cassis and blue fruits as well as spicy oak and violets. It's certainly not shy, yet it stays pure, precise, and nicely focused, with medium to full-bodied richness, ripe, building tannins, and a great finish. This beauty is just loaded with character and is well worth seeking out.

Deep crimson. Intense black cherry, marzipan, roasted chestnut aromas and flavours with vanilla notes and fine looseknit slinky/ chocolaty tannins. Fresh cedary touch wood varnish finish. (Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Cabernet Franc, Petit Verdot 30% new oak)
92-94/100 Neal Martin
The 2022 Kirwan bestows plenty of luscious fruit on the nose with blackberry, bilberry, cedar and crushed iris flower, unfolding nicely in the glass. There is a satisfying depth to these aromas. The palate is medium-bodied, lively and packed full of fruit, with saturated tannins and decent acidity. This is one of the more approachable Margaux wines this vintage, yet it has commendable freshness and structure. This Kirwan will give plenty of pleasure over 20-30 years. A second and third bottles were a little creamier on the finish.
92-94/100 The Wine Independent
The 2022 Kirwan is deep garnet-purple in color. Notes of plum preserves, cherry compote, and blackcurrant cordial spill from the glass, followed by nuances of rose oil, cedar chest, and dusty soil. The medium to full-bodied palate is rich and ripe, with a lively backbone and plush tannins, finishing with a skip in its step.
