Henri Gouges Nuits-St-Georges Les St Georges 1999 is a medium-bodied Burgundy red wine from the Premier Cru climat of Les St Georges in the Nuits-St-Georges appellation of the Côte de Nuits. 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 vineyards. the Plateaux, Belles Croix, Fleurières, Brûlées and the Chaliots. These wines are typically generous and fruit-forward but do need to rest for a few years to fully blossom.

Vinous
Full, bright, saturated medium ruby. Knockout nose of black fruits, minerals, espresso, roasted meat, licorice, violet pastille and menthol. Huge but utterly lively and suave. A sappy, perfumed wine of great intensity and inner-mouth lift. Very complex and perfectly balanced. Vibrant finish features smooth, toothcoating tannins and superb persistence. Les Saint-Georges of grand cru quality.
