Lisa Perrotti-Brown MW 92-94Antonio Galloni "The 2022 Nénin is terrific. Pliant, rich and creamy in the glass, the 2022 is a formidable example of the year. Soft, plush contours wrap around a core of red/purplish berry fruit. Touches of blood orange, mint, cinnamon and rose petal lend nuance to this sensual, alluring Pomerol from the Delon family. The 2022 is beautifully done."
James Suckling 94-95
A juicy and crunchy red with blackberry, chocolate, hazelnut. Mocha. Full to medium body with a creamy texture. Lots going on here. 64% merlot and 36% cabernet franc.

Jeb Dunnock "Ripe black cherries, red plums, spice, dried herbs, and chocolate all emerge from the 2022 Château Nenin, an incredibly ripe, sexy, full-bodied Pomerol revealing a broad, opulent mid-palate and velvety tannins. Based on 64% Merlot and 36% Cabernet Franc, this is another concentrated, inky-hued, powerful 2022 that's going to demand bottle age."

Neal Martin "The 2022 Nénin was picked September 1-23, a relatively long harvest. The nose is quite opulent with black cherries, boysenberry and a touch of fi. Generous and bold. The palate is medium-bodied with dark chocolate and espresso-laced black fruit, granular tannins, and well-judged acidity. The 39% new oak needs a few months to be assimilated. Composed and quite persistent this should drink well after 3-5 years."
The Wine Advocate 93-95
A blend of 64% Merlot and 36% Cabernet Franc, the 2022 Nenin delivers aromas of cherries, violets, sweet berries and rose petals, followed by a medium to full-bodied, deep and fleshy palate that's rich, succulent and seamless, its ample core of fruit largely concealing its sweet, powdery tannins.
