2022 Domaine Henri Gouges N-St-G 1er Cru Les Pruliers
France / Burgundy / Cote de Nuits / Nuits-Saint-Georges Premier Cru Rouge
Producer tasting notes: "With vines of an average age of 50 years, the Premier Cru Les Pruliers is an intense and robust wine which has a beautiful capacity to ageing," Henri Gouges.
Vintage 2022 shows an intense deep purple. A little wood alongside the relatively heady fruit. Quite ripe, super succulent, plenty of plums, yet with some mineral tannins at the back which require longer elevage. The tannins are on the firmer side.
Drink from 2031-2038.
Located on the South hillside of Nuits-Saint-Georges, the two parcels are assembled during vinification for a total surface of 1.8 hectare. This 1er Cru extends in the middle of hillside between 240 and 260 meters of altitude, where you can find a large complexity of rocks, from the flush rock to the screes coming from the top of the hillside.
