What analogy can be drawn from the names "Chaignots", "Pruliers", "Clos des Porrets Saint-Georges", or "Vaucrains" ? Firstly, one that illustrates some of the most famous names from the Nuiton vineyard. Secondly, one that embodies the Gouges domain, one of the most beautiful selections of Grand Cru from the Côte d’Or.
Here, man takes root in the soil like the ancient vines he produces. Once, it was Henri, then Michel and Marcel, today it is Pierre, Christian and their successor, Grégory : for nearly eighty years, the soil has soaked up the sweat of these enthusiasts on the fifteen hectares that make up the family domain. Since the beginning of the century, all the work in the Gouges family can be summarised in the maxim : "it is whilst still on the vine that a fine wine matures..."

"Medium red. Rather cool aromas and flavors of redcurrant, cherry and coffee complicated by an element of smoky minerality. A supple wine of moderate flesh, offering subtle mid-palate sweetness and a suggestion of underbrush. Finishes with a rather suave dusting of tannins."

The 2015 Nuits Saint Georges Village, a blend on different small blocks between the south and middle of the appellation, offers a fragrant, well-defined bouquet with red cherries and cranberry fruit. There is impressive mineralité and transparency considering this is a "mere" village cru. The palate is medium-bodied with crisp tannin, tart cherries mixed with bergamot and hints of early grey. I appreciate the complexity here and it marks a significant step up from the Bourgogne Rouge."
