Domaine Henri Gouges 2017 Nuits St. Georges
Villages Red
Note: from 4 different parcels scattered above and below the 1ers and the blend of vines averages about 35 years of age
Tasting note: Discreet wood serves as a relatively neutral backdrop for the fresh aromas of red currant and earth that are laced with plenty of sauvage character. The rich, mouth coating and sappy medium weight flavors possess fine volume while concluding in a nicely persistent finish that is, if not exactly refined, then certainly less rustic than usual.
