Wines from Domaine Henri Gouges: buy at the best price
Located in Nuits-Saint-Georges at the heart of the Côte d'Or, this family estate was founded by Henri Gouges nearly a century ago and is one of the legendary estates of the Côte de Nuits. In 1929, Domaine Henri Gouges was among the first to bottle at the estate, at a time when selling in bulk was the norm. Domaine Henri Gouges is today managed by Christian Gouges, supported by Grégory and Antoine Gouges. The estate's vineyard spans 14.5 hectares across Bourgogne, Nuits-Saint-Georges Village and Nuits-Saint-Georges 1er cru. The vines average around forty years of age, and Domaine Henri Gouges produces 60,000 bottles per year, predominantly red Burgundy (Pinot Noir grape variety) and a small amount of white Burgundy (Pinot Blanc, derived from a mutation of Pinot Noir). Of the 14.5 hectares planted, 13.2 hectares are Pinot Noir and 1.3 hectares are Pinot Blanc.
