Robert Parker:"Readers looking for a masculine, powerful, concentrated, broodingly backward style of Margaux need look no further than the 2010 Kirwan. A dense opaque purple color is accompanied by notes of graphite, licorice, blackberry and cassis. Intense and concentrated with good acidity as well as a boatload of tannin, it should be forgotten for 7-10 years and drunk over the following three decades."

René Gabriel:
"Tiefes Purpur. Feinduftiges Bouquet, rote Kirschen und Waldbeeren, Edelhölzer im Untergrund. Eleganter, langer Gaumen, mittelgewichtig, aber mit feinen Muskeln und dezent kerniger Mitte."

Jane Anson:
"Bright vibrant purple, medium intensity. Quite like this, packed full of fresh vibrant fruits, tons of intensity but with a sense of freshness and fun. Again, could have stepped out of 2009. Drink 2018-2030."

Decanter Magazine:
"Richly-extracted slightly earthy fruit with both intensity, purity and aromatic complexity, a rich, harmonious wine, with everything there for the long term, one of the best ever Kirwans."

Jancis Robinson:
"Blackish crimson. Intense blend of very ripe fruit and some tobacco savour. Racy green finish – a bit angular – but lots of pleasure too. Edgy for the moment. Not the densest but with real verve."

Neal Martin:
"A blend of 50% Cabernet Sauvignon, 35% merlot, 9% Cabernet Franc and 6% Petit Verdot, including 13% vin de presse and being raised in 45% new oak (13.9% alcohol) the Kirwan ’10 has a very ripe bouquet with blackcurrant, blueberry, plum and cedar. The palate is medium-bodied with ripe tannins, quite robust on the entry, very good weight but mellowing nicely towards the creamy textured finish. This is a very fine, modern style Margaux, one that is very well crafted"
