DOMAINE HENRI GOUGES NUITS ST GEORGES CLOS DES PORRETS 1ER CRU MONOPOLE

The Nuits-Saint-Georges 1er Cru 'Clos des Porrets Saint-Georges' is the esteemed Monopole of Domaine Henri Gouges. This exceptional red Burgundy epitomises the powerful, age-worthy style of Nuits-Saint-Georges, showcasing the superb potential of Pinot Noir on deep clay-limestone soils. A true expression of a unique Premier Cru climat, built to reward long-term cellaring.

Tasting Notes

• Colour: A deep, saturated ruby.
• Aromatics: A complex nose of dark berry fruit, black cherry, and underlying earthy notes-hints of truffles, moss, and sweet oak spices.
• Mouthfeel: Structured and full, with powerful but fine-grained tannins. The trademark Gouges structure is balanced by vibrant acidity, leading to a profound, long, and mineral finish.

Food Pairing & Decanting

A classic pairing for game and rich red meats. Serve at 16°C. Given the wine's robust nature in its youth, decanting for 1-2 hours is advisable to soften the tannins and enhance aromatic complexity.
