More about this product

Château Kirwan

Château Kirwan

Chateau Kirwan dates back to 1710 and is located in the Margaux Appeal Region, located on the Cantenac Plateau, overlooking the Garonne River. The name is of its Irish owner, who was guillotined in 1792. Since 1925, Kirwan has been owned by one of the oldest and largest wine trading companies in the Schröder and Schÿler region. The vines are planted with 45% Cabernet Sauvignon, 30% Merlot, 15% Cabernet Franc and 10% Petit Verdot. For the Margaux region, this is the highest participation rate of Cabernet Franc and Petit Verdot. However, their presence in the blend varies according to the season, because these varieties do not always manage to reach the required maturity. Chateau Kirwan is booming and we are about to see many more wonderful harvests.
