Chateau Nenin, Pomerol 1998 Syrah characterful and subtly sweetly-fruited flavors

characterful and subtly sweetly-fruited flavors of arctic brambles and wizened cranberries

Fine juice

Pours out a pale bricked crimson and already somehow features semi-mature aromas of broth and maple sap

making it lovely to drink now with the capability to age in the cellar for decades

and almost ageless quality

Chateau Nenin, Pomerol 1998 Syrah characterful and subtly sweetly-fruited flavorsInto Neck 92 Jeb Dunnuck The first vintage for the Dillon family, who purchased this estate in 1997, the 1998 Chteau Nenin is a sexy, ripe, fully mature Pomerol that delivers the goods. Made from 80% Merlot and 20% Cabernet Franc, it offers lots of chocolatey dark fruits, spice box, and dried herb aromatics, full body, terrific density, and ample density and texture. Its not going to get any better but is terrific drink. 10 2018
