Introduction:
The 2022 Maison Henri Gouges Nuits‑Saint‑Georges village wine is a compelling pinot noir from one of the region’s most respected domaines. Polished and structured, it delivers pure red fruit, refined mineral tension, and subtle spice.

Tasting notes:
The 2022 Maison Henri Gouges Nuits-Saint-Georges Côte de Nuits has aromas of wild strawberries, cherries, and fresh raspberries layered with hints of forest floor, potpourri spice, and discreet oak influence.
The palate is medium-bodied, with finely textured tannins and balanced acidity. Red fruit flavors lead—cherries and red currants—interlaced with subtle earthiness and a chalky mineral core. Approximately 25% new French oak is gracefully integrated. The finish is clean and persistent, with fruit and spice gently fading to reveal saline tension, floral nuance, and an inviting graphite edge.

Press:
91 points, Wine Spectator:
"Black cherry and blackberry flavors are framed with sweet, spicy oak in this supple, juicy red. Balanced, with a line of tannins focusing the extended finish. Best from 2028 through 2043.130 cases imported."

Overall Impression:
A refined and harmonious village Burgundy—structured yet approachable, with red fruit purity and terroir precision. A versatile and elegant companion to roasted duck, mushroom risotto, or herbed poultry dishes. Drink 2025 through 2032 for the best balance of freshness and development.
