Fugue de Nenin Pomerol 2010
Beautiful deep purple color. Intensely aromatic, the bouquet reveals fruity and sweet notes of small red and black berries, plum, and chocolate, alongside delicate floral hints. On the palate, the wine seduces with its round and generous texture and silky tannins. Brimming with energy, the wine maintains lovely persistence on the finish. A delicious Pomerol from Château Nénin to enjoy now.
Soft, juicy, and exquisitely perfumed -- what more could you want from Right Bank Bordeaux? This delicious bottle of Pomerol is structured and medium-bodied, marked by notes of dark berries, plums, crushed rocks, and smoke. Drink this now or lay down for another 5-ish years.
This Pomerol vineyard covers an area of 32 hectares. The vines are planted on a mosaic of terroirs composed of clay soils, siliceous gravel, quartz, granite, basalt pebbles, and iron-rich grime.
Fugue de Nénin is the Second Wine of Château Nénin, first produced with the 1997 vintage. Fugue contains a higher proportion of Merlot than its elder. As a result, it is more approachable while still expressing the identity of Pomerol and the estate. Its name, Fugue, is inspired by the world of music—a fugue being a repetition of the main theme, which here is the Grand Vin Château Nénin. Fugue de Nénin is a hedonistic, indulgent, round, and silky wine that can be enjoyed earlier than the grand vin, yet offers a very high level of pleasure.
