Grape 100% Pinot Noir Tasting Notes Offers lush black cherries, black pepper and light tobacco scents. The palate is medium-bodied with juicy, ripe black fruit laced with blood ora nge and marmalade. It gains plenty of weight towards the finish, conveying more terroir than the Clos de Vougeot. More About The Winery Founded in 1925, Domaine Henri Gouges is one of the most iconic estates of Nuits-Saint-Georges in Burgundy. With 14.5 hectares of prime vineyards, including seven renowned Premier Cru sites, the domaine has built a reputation for crafting age-worthy, terroir-driven Pinot Noir of incredible precision and purity. Henri Gouges was among the pioneers of estate bottling in Burgundy, beginning in 1933 alongside estates like Marquis d’Angerville. His philosophy of low yields and meticulous vineyard care set the tone for generations to come. Today, the domaine is run by the third and fourth generations — Pierre and Christian Gouges, together with Pierre’s son Gregory, who oversees winemaking. These are profound, expressive Burgundies that marry power with elegance. Dark fruit, spice, and mineral undertones reflect the limestone-rich terroirs, while the long aging potential makes them prized additions to serious collectors’ cellars. Show more
