Henri Gouges Nuits St. Georges 2023

My favourite producer in Nuits St Georges  Ian Cook

(from Les Plateaux, Belle Croix, Les Fleurières, Les Crots and Les Chaillots). A riper yet still fresh nose reflected notes of various dark berries, poached plum and more prominent earth influence. As one would reasonably expect, there is notably more volume, if less minerality to the succulent and quite rich medium weight flavors that conclude in a mildly rustic and austere finale. This is a quality Nuits villages and worth considering. 89 points, drink 2029+, Allen Meadows, Burghound.
