14.5% abv, Delon, imported by Republic National Distributing Company LLC, Houston, TX. Cork closure: natural. Biodynamic calendar: root day.
Winemaking notes: second label of Château Nenin, 90% Merlot and 10% Cabernet Franc which comprises about 2/3 of the estate production.
Tasting note: the 2015 Nenin is deep garnet in color with a clean nose of pronounced intensity with aromas of potpourri, tar, leather, cedar, and earth. On the plate this wine is dry with medium acidity, medium+ tannins, high alcohol, medium body, medium+ flavor intensity and a medium finish with flavors of rose petals, cedar, vanilla, coconut, blackberry, black plum, mulberry and tobacco leaf. Drink now or through 2032, this wine is good: 8.7/10. Overall, it lacked balance but, arguably, could still improve with some time in bottle.
