Chateau Nenin, Pomerol 1998 California the dark red and raspberry

the dark red and raspberry fruits dominate

Deceptively medium in body

Aromas of fennel

Deep ruby in color with slight bricking at the edges

There is excellent intensity to the energetic middle weight flavors that possess good precision on the firm and dusty but not really rustic finish that delivers excellent persistence

Chateau Nenin, Pomerol 1998 California the dark red and raspberryInto 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
