Domaine Henri Gouges

The name Henri Gouges seems synonymous with Nuits-Saint-Georges. Inheriting vineyards after WWI Henri quickly expanded his holdings in the commune leaving a legacy that now encompasses 14.5ha, including the best portions of seven of the best Premier Crus. He was among the first to start bottling and selling his own wines in the 1930s, developing a reputation for consistently high-quality wines. Now the second and third generations are running the estate, which is farmed organically and with a new winery since 2007.

Traditional winemaking, with a measured use of new oak depending on vintage and the demands of each vineyard, results in some of the best wines of the appellation. Gouges has a hectare each of Les Saint-Georges and Les Vaucrains as well as the monopole Clos des Porrets-Saint-Georges - all strong land holdings for producing outstanding wines.
