Based in Nuits-Saint-Georges, Domaine Henri Gouges is a family-owned estate currently run by cousins Pierre and Christian Gouges. Henri Gouges established the Domaine in 1925, becoming one of the first growers in Burgundy to sell wine under his own name. This particular release comes from Les Saint-Georges, arguably the best Premier Cru in Nuits-Saint-Georges. The 1998 vintage produced reds that were firm and tightly structured in their youth but are now showing their true potential.

Vinous
The 1998 Nuits Saint-Georges Les Saint-Georges 1er Cru has an impressive bouquet, one that is both fresh and focused with redcurrant, juniper, clove and light cigar box notes. The palate is medium-bodied with very fine and noble tannin. The texture is quite chalky. There is a surfeit of energy and tension towards the finessed finish. Bon vin! Tasted at the Gouges retrospective at La Cabotte.Neal Martin1st October 2018
