Description

Blend: 67% Merlot; 30% Cabernet Franc; 3% Cabernet Sauvignon.

It is worth remembering that Nénin is owned by the Delon family of Ch. Léoville Las Cases. That, and its very individual terroir, means Nénin stands out stylistically from the Pomerol mainstream. There is always a high proportion of Cabernet Franc here, with a little Cabernet Sauvignon for the first time in 2023.

The wine is rich with mulberry fruits. It is also floral, with rose and liquorice notes. The palate is full without being too weighty and there is a pleasant sapid, sour-cherry edge to the finish. This is a most interesting wine, perhaps a little more introspective than some of this year’s Pomerols.

Drink 2029 - 2045
