2002 Henri Gouges Nuits St. George Les Pruliers Premier Cru Red Burgundy

Description

For decades the leader in the village of Nuits-Saint-Georges, this was one of the first estates in Burgundy to bottle its own wines rather than send production off to the local merchants. Founded at the beginning of the twentieth century, the domaine is now guided by Pierre and Christian Gouges, grandsons of Henri. Following a dip in quality in the 1980s, today's wines are once again at the top of their appellation: concentrated, solidly structured, and generally in need of patience.
Eyes: Dark ruby to black/purple
Nose: Black cherries, mocha, coffee, black tea, tomato skins, plums
Mouth: Usually soft with firm backbone

Expert Reviews


Good deep red-ruby color. Pure, discreet aromas of blackberry, violet, bitter chocolate and mint. Juicy, tightly wound and impressively intense, with bright flavors of dark berries, violet and mint. A step up in fruit intensity and length from the foregoing samples. Finishes juicy and persistent, with suave tannins and a pronounced mineral component.
