Nuits Saint Georges Les Saint Georges, Domaine Henri Gouges 2006

Tasting Notes

As it virtually always does, this possesses the most elegant and complete nose of the group with highly complex, layered and refined red berry fruit aromas that are nuanced by hints of underbrush and fresh earth that continue onto the delicious, intense and sophisticated flavors that display a really seductive silkiness on the mouth coating finish. Knowing this wine well, I doubt that the silky quality will last as I expect that this will shut down fairly hard for a few years before blossoming in a decade. Recommended.
