Nuits-Saint-Georges 1er Cru Clos des Porrets St Georges Henri Gouges 2016

Wonderful black fruit character with hints of cassis and plums. The palate is full of dark fruits too, but is surprisingly silky. It has good structure and the finish is long and ripe. The 14.5 ha Domaine Henri Gouges has excellent holdings in Nuits-Saint-Georges and produces some of the village’s most highly regarded wines. The average age of the vines is an impressive 50 years with some at 90 years old.
