    Description

    The vivacity and depth of a Second Wine from Pomerol

    The estate

    Owned by the Delon Estates, the Château Nénin represents, according to the Delon family, "the expression of a great Pomerol for aging". This 19th-century estate was acquired by the Delons in 1997 and underwent a major restructuring that has now brought Château Nénin to the top of Pomerol.

    The vineyard

    The vineyard of Château Nénin extends over an area of nearly 30 hectares in the Pomerol vineyard, with 15 dedicated to the Grand Vin and 17 for the second wine. The vines are planted on a mosaic of terroirs composed of clayey soils, siliceous gravels, quartz, granites, basalt pebbles and iron crasses.

    The wine

    Fugue de Nénin is the Second Wine of Château Nénin, which was produced for the first time in the 1997 vintage. Fugue contains a higher proportion of merlot than its elder. It is thus more accessible while expressing the identity of Pomerol and the estate. Its name, Fugue, comes from the world of music, a fugue being a repetition of the main theme, which is therefore here the Grand Vin Château Nénin. Fugue de Nénin is a hedonistic, gourmet, round and silky wine that can be enjoyed earlier than the grand vin but at a very high level of pleasure.

    Vinification and aging

    Aging for 10 months in barrels (including 5% new).

    Blend

    This Fugue de Nénin 2024 is made from a blend of merlot (97%) and cabernet franc (3%).
