CHATEAU NENIN POMEROL is a distinguished red wine from the Pomerol region of Bordeaux, France. This wine exhibits a rich flavor profile, characterized by dark fruit notes such as black cherry and plum, complemented by earthy undertones and a hint of spice. Its well-structured tannins and balanced acidity contribute to its elegance, making it a versatile choice for various occasions.
This wine pairs beautifully with red meats, such as grilled lamb or beef, and enhances dishes like duck breast or mushroom risotto. It's also an excellent match for aged cheeses, offering a delightful contrast to their richness.
The layers of fruit come through strongly on the nose. Plum and raspberry richness wrapped up with raspberry leaf and sage, this just gently tiptoes through the palate. Extraction is careful and delicate and yet there is a lot of power. This is always a Left Bank style of Pomerol giving a restrained savoury feel with freshness and classicism. Opens slowly in the glass and needs time over ageing. In the cellar, they cut the extraction time down by half compared to 2018, because the skins were so thick. 40% new oak.
A Merlot-dominant blend complemented by 30% Cabernet Franc, the 2019 Nenin offers up notes of sweet berries and plums framed by creamy new oak. Medium to full-bodied, supple and fleshy, it’s rich and enveloping, with an ample core of fruit and supple structuring tannins. Four hectares on gravel soils adjacent to Trotanoy lend structure, but the 2019 is so polished out of the gates that it might be easy to miss it.
