About
Château Nénin Pomerol 2022 is a dry red wine crafted from a blend of Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon and Cabernet Franc, sourced from the esteemed Pomerol appellation in Bordeaux, France. This region is celebrated for producing some of the most elegant and structured Merlot-dominant wines in the world. Château Nénin combines tradition and modern winemaking techniques to create a wine that showcases the depth, complexity, and finesse characteristic of Pomerol.
Producer
By Pomerol standards, Château Nenin is a large estate, and its wines have been favored by the British royal family. Until 1997, Nenin belonged to the Despujol family, who sold it to Jean Hubert and Michel Delon, who owned the Château Léoville-Las-Cases winery. Michel Rolland still acts as a consultant, but the wines have a cleaner taste and reflect a deeper fruitiness than before. The Nenin winery is located in a fabulous 19th century estate outside the village of Catusseau with 25 hectares of vineyards set in a large park. The vineyard faces southwest and is located on a high plateau where the soil consists of sand and gravel.
Tasting notes
Château Nénin Pomerol 2022 opens with aromas of ripe black cherries, blackberries, and plum, intertwined with hints of violets, graphite, and subtle spice. On the palate, it delivers a full-bodied texture with silky tannins and vibrant acidity, revealing layers of dark fruit, cocoa, and a touch of earthy minerality. The wine finishes long and refined, with excellent balance and aging potential.
Pairing
This Pomerol pairs beautifully with roasted lamb, beef tenderloin, or duck breast, where its structure and depth complement rich, savory flavors. It also enhances aged cheeses and mushroom-based dishes, making for an elegant and sophisticated dining experience.

Pomerol
Pomerol is the smallest appellation in Bordeaux. It doesn’t use any classification systems - it's all democracy here. Houses like Petrus and Le Pin have truly earned their cult status in the wine world. Merlot is the dominant grape here. The soil is mostly gravel, some clay can only be found near the Saint Emilion region. Wines are rich, silky, with a dark, deep colour, nice acidity and tannins. The aroma is composed of juicy dark plums and cream. The best samples are made for long ageing.
Bordeaux
Bordeaux wines are considered to be the most prestige and renowned in the world. The region is mainly known for its dry red wines made from Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc and Merlot grapes, and one can almost always find the word Château (French for „castle”) on Bordeaux wine labels. In order to understand the style of wine most desirable for your taste, it is recommended to try different samples from the Left as well as the Right Bank of The Gironde. Both banks differ not only with different soil, but also with the share of specific wines. There are several classifications in Bordeaux but the main one, introduced in 1855, hasn’t changed since and still impacts wine prices nowadays. A few years later, in 1936, an alternative classification system - Crus Bourgeois - was established. Bordeaux is known for a commerce praxis called en primeur - it means that a buyer can purchase wines immediately after harvest and prior to production for a substantially lower price, thus obtaining the opportunity to sell them for a larger profit later in the future. Bordeaux wines can be described as big, complex and with a strong character, but very friendly at the same time so that each and every wine lover could find something tasty and suitable for a great wine night.
