Tasting note

品飲筆記：酒體深沉卻不笨重，第一波香氣是黑櫻桃、李子與黑莓，接著浮現可可、黑巧克力、檀香與帶土感的松露氣息，淡淡花香與橘皮提亮。入口飽滿，果實甜度與清爽酸度互相牽引，單寧細緻但有力，帶來堅實的架構與咀嚼感；尾韻悠長帶些鹹香與礦質感。 酒莊與產區：尼恩堡（Château Nénin）承襲 Delon 家族對經典波美侯風格的追求，現由 Christian Moueix 掌管，強調力量與優雅並存。葡萄園位於波美侯典型的黏土與礫石地帶，白天溫暖、夜晚溫差大，保存了果香與鮮明酸度。 釀造與熟成：2018 年於 9 月 13 日至 10 月 10 日之間採收，經約 18 個月橡木桶熟成。釀造手法注重果實純淨與結構平衡，合理的橡木使用帶來香草與香料輪廓而不蓋掉本身的果味。 口感小提醒：年輕喝時建議醒酒 60–120 分鐘，能讓單寧更圓潤，16–18°C 會是理想醒飲溫度。配餐上適合帶汁或有油花的紅肉、慢燉料理與陳年乳酪，能與酒體豐滿的口感互相加分。

Tasting Note: Deep, concentrated aromas of black cherry, plum and blackberry mingle with cocoa, dark chocolate, cedar and an earthy, truffle-like undertone. Flowers and subtle orange zest lift the bouquet. On the palate the wine is full-bodied and richly textured: ripe core fruit is impeccably framed by fresh acidity and firm, ultra-fine tannins that give structure without heaviness. The finish is long, savory and mineral-tinged. Producer Notes: Château Nénin — in the Delon family tradition and now under the ownership of Christian Moueix — presents this vintage as a classic Pomerol vin de garde: combining power, elegance, purity and precision. The deliberate increase of Cabernet Franc across the holdings brings tautness, aromatic lift and an extra thread of freshness to the blend. Winemaking & Ageing: Grapes were harvested between 13 September and 10 October. The wine was matured for 18 months in oak, producing a concentrated, oaked profile that remains balanced by vibrancy and cool-climate energy. Expect this wine to evolve in bottle over decades; drinking window cited from release runs broadly through 2021–2044. Vineyard: Sourced from Pomerol parcels where clay-rich soils lend density and textural weight while cooler nights preserved bright aromatics. Merlot provides the plush mid-palate density while the Cabernet Franc components add spice, floral lift and tensile structure. Service Suggestion: If enjoying young, decant for about 60–120 minutes to let the tannins open. Serve at 16–18°C. Food Pairing: robust red meats, slow-braised dishes, game and mature cheeses complement the wine's density and savory finish.
