Gradually formed through several generations, Domaine Henri Gouges covers 15 hectares across 10 appellations – among them 7 premiers crus, 3 Bourgognes and 2 Villages. Henri Gouges himself created the domaine in the 1920s, becoming one of the first growers in Burgundy to sell wine under his own name. This Nuits-Saint-Georges Village is made with fruit from 5 vinyards. the Plateaux, Belles Croix, Fleurières, Brûlées and the Chaliots. The wines tend to be generous and fruit-forward but do need a few years to show their true potential.
Vinous
Racked three week before my visit and due for bottling in December, the 2020 Nuits Saint-Georges Village has a lot of intensity on the nose with black cherries, creme de cassis and violet. The palate is medium-bodied with fine tannins, crisp acidity, slightly brittle in texture towards the finish. Maybe just a little confit for my taste? Neal Martin1st December 2021
