When to Drink Chateau Nenin, Anticipated Maturity, Decanting Time

Chateau Nenin can be enjoyed on the young side with 1-2 hours of decanting. This allows the wine to soften and open its perfume.

Older vintages might need very little decanting, just enough to remove the sediment. The wine is better with 6-10 years of bottle age. Of course that can vary slightly, depending on the vintage character. In the best years, Chateau Nenin will be at its best between 10-25 years of age after the vintage.

Serving Chateau Nenin with Wine, Food, Pairing Tips

Chateau Nenin is best served at 15.5 degrees Celsius, 60 degrees Fahrenheit. The cool, almost cellar temperature gives the wine more freshness and lift.

Chateau Nenin is best paired with all types of classic meat dishes, veal, pork, beef, lamb, duck, game, roast chicken, roasted, braised and grilled dishes. Chateau Nenin is also good when matched with Asian dishes, hearty fish courses like tuna, mushrooms, pasta and a wide assortment of hard and soft cheeses.
