This is another great 2009 wine from Pomerol.... The nose has fresh aromas of a fruit/vegetable stand next to a coffee house...Beautiful.... Though the tannin is fine and quite gripping at the moment (practically pulled the enamel from my teeth), it is so obvious what is underneath..... Enjoyable drinking now with decant, but it needs time to soften.

As with many 09 chateaux, Kirwan performed nicely.... 4 hour decant... drank over 3 hours.... Soft tannins, with silk complexity.... fruit is held back a bit, but it has the structure to age effortlessly for a very long time.... Nose was fresh and fruity... Overall, this is a great wine that will offer pleasure for a long time through out its aging process.

Elegant, smooth, classic La Lagune... Drinking much better than I tried 6 months ago... Beautiful wood , spice, dark cherry and licorice on the palette... with a classic nose I come to expect with this chateau. Has plenty of room to improve and is a smart purchase if you like this style.
