2016 Chateau Nenin Pomerol

Chateau Nenin is located on the “Right Bank” of Bordeaux, in the Pomerol appellation, was formerly owned by the Despujol Family since 1847. But in 1997 it became the property of the Delon Family. The family has deep roots and experience in Bordeaux, they were owners of Chateau Leoville Las Cases in St. Julien appellation and Chateau Potensac located in Haut Médoc. 2016 is a vintage for the cellars, with layers of depth and structure that will last decades. That being said, with Michel Roland consulting you can guarantee that this wine is delicious now if you are looking for a wine that really packs a punch. 

In 1999 they expanded the estate by purchasing 4 hectares of vineyard from Chateau Certan Giraud. Later in 2004, a restructuring of the winery was carried out; from the vineyard to the cellar. The cellar was extended and renewed with modern equipment. And to finish this magnificent renovation, they built a new vat room with state-of-the-art equipment.

Chateau Nenin has 32 ha of planted vineyard: 78% Merlot, 21% Cabernet Franc and 1% Cabernet Sauvignon. Alluvial soils composed of siliceous clay and gravel, quartz, granite, iron-deposits, and basalt pebbles.
