About Winery Château Nenin, a Pomerol winery with a history dating back to the 18th century, is known for its premium red wines, particularly those featuring a blend of Merlot and Cabernet Franc. Initially owned by the Demay and Paillet families, the estate was later acquired by the Despujol family, who owned it until 1997. In that year, Michel Delon, also owner of Château Léoville Las Cases, purchased the property and initiated significant improvements to the vineyard and facilities, including modernizing the winemaking process.
