Varietal

Red Bordeaux

There are few regions in the world with stricter regulations in regards to wine production and grape varietals than those found in Bordeaux, France. Here, in the home of the world's finest wines, the type and quality of grapes used is of utmost importance, and the legendary wineries which work on the banks of the Gironde river have mastered the careful art of juice blending to find the perfect balance for their produce. Whilst there are six 'official' Bordeaux grapes, the two key varietals for almost every fine Bordeaux wine are Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot, and with good reason. Whilst Cabernet Sauvignon grapes are renowned for their acidity and astringency, strong fruit and spice flavors and full body, Merlot grapes are notably rounded, soft, fleshy and lighter on tannin. The combination of these two varietals, along with a small percentage of (commonly) Petit Verdot or Cabernet Franc, is the perfect balancing act â€“ the two grape varietals cancel out each others weaker points, and accentuate all that is good about the other.

Appellation

Pomerol

Pomerol, a distinguished appellation on Bordeaux's Right Bank, stands as a vinous jewel celebrated for its exceptional Merlot-dominant red wines. What makes Pomerol unique is its relatively small size, allowing for an intimate focus on individual vineyards and an emphasis on artisanal winemaking. Unlike many Bordeaux regions, Pomerol does not have a formal classification system, placing the spotlight on each estate's intrinsic quality and distinct terroir. Merlot thrives in Pomerol's clay-rich soils, crafting wines of opulence, velvety texture, and alluring plum and black cherry notes. Iconic châteaux like Pétrus and Le Pin showcase the pinnacle of Pomerol's winemaking prowess. The absence of Cabernet Sauvignon in the blends further accentuates the appellation's uniqueness. Pomerol wines are revered for their approachability in youth and the ability to evolve gracefully over time, exemplifying the timeless elegance and allure of this exceptional Bordeaux appellation.

Wine Spectator

Youthfully compact, this red offers a juicy cassis and plum core wrapped in black licorice and sweet tobacco before turning to show off a gloss of roasted vanilla on the sleek and fresh finish. Merlot and Cabernet Franc. Drink now through 2033.

The 2023 Fugue de Nénin is a lovely second wine. Bright red-toned fruit, crushed flowers, mint, blood orange and cinnamon all grace this soft, open-knit Pomerol from Nénin. This is everything a second wine should be. Delicious.

Jeb Dunnuck

The second wine from this estate, the 2023 Fugue De Nénin is based on 93% Merlot and 7% Cabernet Franc that spent 10 months in 10% new French oak. Juicy black cherries, leafy herbs, crunchy red fruits, and chocolaty hints all emerge from this medium-bodied, fresh, focused, elegant effort. It has nicely integrated acidity and outstanding length. Drink this charming Pomerol over the coming 10-15 years. Drink 2026-2041.

The Wine Independent

89-90 2023 Fugee de Nenin offers a pleasant, round and creamy nose with hints of dairy products and a fine peppery taste. The fruit is very obvious and this wine is built for medium term drinking. It should be ready in 2-4 years.
