The Delon family of Château Léoville-Las-Cases bought this historic estate in 1997 from the Despujols, who were the forebears of the Delon’s cousins. This estate has a long history, right back to the 16th century, for producing wines with a great ability to age. Since 1997 the Delons have undertaken major restructuring with new pruning and trellising methods, as well as lowering the yields. The vineyard is south-west facing and stands in one block, with the parcels located on the Pomerol Plateau that are strictly dedicated to the Grand vin of Nénin, and the adjoining plots, with a slightly lower altitude, are producing the Fugue de Nénin. The soils are a mix of deep gravels, clay and sand. The gradual increase of Cabernet Franc within the vineyards has given the wine tautness, distinction and freshness. A Bordeaux masterclass not to be missed.
