Henri Gouges, Nuits Saint Georges Clos Porrets other_regions_italy the last time it was

the last time it was produced was way back in 2008

though still quite subtle

long and delicious while remaining altogether serious

Who says there is no such thing as terroir

(from vines planted mostly in 1949)

Henri Gouges, Nuits Saint Georges Clos Porrets other_regions_italy the last time it was(a 3. 5 ha monopole with 30+ year old vines). A notably ripe nose of cassis, black cherry, humus and earth possesses fine complexity. There is outstanding volume and mid palate concentration to the powerful and mouth coating middle weight flavors that exhibit a subtle minerality on the sappy, dusty, energetic and beautifully persistent finish. This is a classic Nuits that is built to age and will need it. 93 2030+
