  Weinwisser
  "Der Nenin 2021 ist ein reichhaltiger Pomerol mit viel Saft und Kern. Seine noblen Gerbstoffe sind ganz klar und kompakt. Sie unterstützen den üppigen Pomerol-Charakter mit gerbstoffreich abgerundetem Hintergrund und ausgezeichneter Rasse."

  The Wine Advocate
  "The 2021 Nenin is a decided overperformer, bursting from the glass with notes of dark berries, plums and cherries, complemented by exotic top notes of rose petals, violets, Indian spices and orange zest. Medium to full-bodied, fleshy and velvety, it's lively and polished, with a layered core of fruit and a long, perfumed finish."

  James Suckling
  "This has aromas and flavors of dark fruit, bark, chocolate, cedar and mushrooms. The palate is medium- to full-bodied, with a fleshy texture around the chewy and polished tannins. Needs time to soften, as it’s a little austere now. Best after 2026."

  Decanter
  "Pot pourri aromas, perfumed and floral, with strawberry and cherry chocolate. Crunchy and lively on the palate with an initial mouthwatering sensation that comes from all corners of the mouth. It's a touch soft on the Mid-palate, losing a little of the glamorous and plush fruit forwardness, leaving some liquorice spice, iodine and clove in the middle. It’s just so fruity and lively at the beginning - the bitter grapefruit, blood orange, sour cherry and raspberry - then stops just a little short, suddenly becoming quite shy with the terroir effects of graphite and wet stone and the Cabernet Franc spice and focus coming in and taking over. It has a gently caressing feel however, classic and straight with a seamless tannic structure. Good precision on show and will benefit from ageing."

  "This wine shows red-berry aromas with black peppers in the background. The black-currant fruits from perfumed Cabernet Franc are forward and packed with acidity. Drink from 2026."

  Wine Spectator
  "Reserved in style, but the core of steeped cherry, red currant and blood orange flavors has excellent definition, while rooibos tea, sweet bay leaf and savory sparkles add range on the finish. Reveals a polished edge, which works well with the late tug of earth on the finish. Merlot and Cabernet Franc. Best from 2026 through 2036."

  "The 2021 Château Nenin is up-front and lively, with the vintage's fresher, vibrant style in its mulberry and redcurrant-like fruit as well as spicy herbs and tobacco notes. It’s medium-bodied, balanced, has soft tannins, and present yet nicely integrated acidity. I'd give bottles 2-4 years and enjoy over the following decade."

  Lisa Perrotti-Brown
  "A blend of 64% Merlot and 36% Cabernet Franc, the 2021 Nenin has a medium to deep garnet-purple color. It gallops out with expressive scents of kirsch and juicy plums, giving way to nuances of red roses, allspice, and fragrant earth. The medium-bodied palate is soft and refreshing, with perfumed red fruit lingering with appealing purity."
