Score 12.5/20 · Drink 1972-1990, Jancis Robinson MW, Sep 2011
Not a château bottling but Bordeaux bottled on demand by the owners, négociant Schroder & Schyler. Dark ruby with a hint of dark brown. Oxidised nose. VA reigns! Thick and sweet and dusty. Score of 12.5 is for the wine at this stage, not as it was. (JR)

About the producer

Kirwan
Philippe Delfaut has been integral to the transformation of Ch. Kirwan, taking an estate known for its lavish, Michel-Rolland style and bringing more classicism – with increased precision in the vineyard and winery.
