Medium to full-bodied and laden with black fruits and spicy layers, it has a gorgeous velvety frame and just enough freshness, finishing long and vibrant.
Winemaker and Vineyard: The vineyard of Château Nénin stretches seamlessly with the exception of a single plot. However, the Grand Vin is produced only from the finest plots, 8 hectares of the greatest clay-gravel terroirs located on the Pomerol plateau. The adjoining plots, situated below, are dedicated to the production of the second wine, Fugue de Nénin. Consequently, its terroir comprises the full diversity of soils that characterize Pomerol. It mainly consists of Oligocene deposits covered by alluvial gravel formations from the Dordogne; siliceous clays and gravels, quartz, granites, iron slag, and basalt pebbles. The vines of Château Nénin are planted on the Pomerol plateau.
Tasting: Blended of 75% Merlot and 25% Cabernet Franc, the 2016 Nenin is deep garnet-purple colored and opens with beautiful Black Forest cake, baked blackberries and blueberry compote scents over a core of Chinese five spice, sandalwood and lilacs. Medium to full-bodied and laden with black fruits and spicy layers, it has a gorgeous velvety frame and just enough freshness, finishing long and vibrant. robertparker.com (30.11.2018)
