Despite not having the official classification of Bordeaux wines, as is traditional for Pomerol wines, Château Nenin is known for its high quality and for the production of elegant and complex red wines, which stand out for their intense fruity expression and the soft tannic structure.
The estate covers a large expanse of vineyards, with a commitment to the Merlot grape, which dominates the blend of its wines, alongside Cabernet Franc. This varietal choice highlights the distinctive qualities of the Pomerol terroir, known for its soils rich in clay and gravel, which give the wines a rich aromatic concentration and a velvety texture.
Under the leadership of the Delon family, who also own the renowned Château Léoville Las Cases in Saint-Julien, Château Nenin has seen significant investments and improvements in both the vineyard and cellar. These efforts have led to greater precision in grape selection and winemaking techniques, aiming to enhance the purity of the fruit and the complexity of the wine.
Château Nenin's winemaking reflects a balance between tradition and innovation, using fermentations in thermo-regulated stainless steel tanks to preserve varietal characteristics and aging in French oak barriques to integrate complexity, elegance and a subtle note of spice to wine.
Upon tasting, Château Nenin offers a rich and inviting bouquet, with notes of ripe red fruits, plums, chocolate and a touch of damp earth and floral traces, typical of the expression of Merlot in Pomerol. In the mouth, the wine reveals itself with a notable depth of flavour, supported by silky tannins and good acidity which contributes to the freshness and length of the finish.
Château Nenin is appreciated not only for its immediacy and olfactory and gustatory pleasantness, but also for its aging potential, which allows the wine to develop greater complexity and aromatic nuances over time.
In conclusion, Château Nenin represents an excellent expression of the character and elegance of Pomerol wines, offering a winning combination of aromatic richness, balance and potential for evolution, making it a favorite among Bordeaux wine lovers looking for bottles that embody the quality and charm of this renowned wine-growing region.
