Château Nénin is the epitome of a great Pomerol "vin de garde" (wine for laying down). It combines power and elegance, complexity and balance, purity and refi nement. The gradual increase of Cabernet Franc within the vineyards gives the wine tautness, distinction and freshness. To really appreciate the Grand Vin's ageing ability, you may need to be patient. Like all great Pomerol vins de garde, Château Nénin blossoms over time.
Grape Varietals & Origin: 65% Merlot & 35% Cabernet Franc from Pomerol. Nenin is one of the larger Pomerol estates at 32 hectares, and It is mainly made up of Oligocene deposits covered alluvial gravel formations of the Dordogne; siliceous clays and gravels, quartz, granites, iron dross as well as basalt pebbles.
Taste Profile: Attractive notes of figs, jammy black cherries, mulberries and chocolate aromas with hints of minerals. Elegant, medium-bodied, pure, soft, fully mature style and a light finish. Grape variety: Merlot, Cabernet Franc
From Barolo to Bordeaux, these wines are steeped in tradition. The style covers a broad spectrum of flavor profiles, but tend to be elegant and structured and can be cellared for a long time.
These wines often have savoury tones of earth, bell pepper, tobacco, cassis, and are often medium to full bodied, with long finish & structured palattes
MLF is a process that results in reduction in acidity & the production of buttery texture & taste profile, often applied to more bodied styles of red & white wines
While not all creamy whites or rich fruity reds undergo MLF, and can adopt similar profiles from barrel ageing,
