Note di degustazione
Back to signature Nenin after the lighter 2013 vintage, with graphite and pencil lead, rich back cherry and blackberry fruits, laced with black chocolate and black truffle. This needs more time, you can feel the tannins closing in on the finish suggesting they need a few more years to fully soften up. 35% new oak.

81% Merlot, 19% Cabernet Franc. Mid garnet – still plenty of red in the colour. Very pretty nose of chalky dark-red fruit and something a little peppery/dusty. Melted, fine-boned tannins. I would fall on this in a restaurant for perfect current drinking though there's no hurry. (JH)
The 2014 Nenin has a simple, clean redcurrant and cranberry scented bouquet that feels a little anonymous, does not quite exude Pomerol. The palate is medium-bodied with sappy red fruit, nicely balanced with red cherry, cranberry and raspberry laced with black pepper and sage. The finish feels cohesive and persistent. This is a fine Pomerol that should offer 15 to 20 years of drinking pleasure. Tasted blind at the annual Southwold tasting.
Tasted blind. Perfumed and rather complex and haunting. Not particularly sweet on the palate. Edgy. Almost very good but a little too angular for perfection. Chunky. Definitely needs food. (JR)
