Domaine Henri Gouges is a Nuits-Saint-Georges institution, the estate that helped pioneer estate-bottling in Burgundy, and Les Saint-Georges is the village's most famous vineyard, the Premier Cru that gave Nuits its hyphenated name and long deserves Grand Cru status. This is Pinot Noir grown on the limestone slope at the top of the cru, made in Gouges's classic, structured, sometimes sternly traditional style. The 2002 was a fine Burgundy vintage and this bottle is now mature, in the savory, secondary stretch of its life.  A historic wine from a benchmark address.

"The 2002 Nuits Saint-Georges Les Saint-Georges 1er Cru is bestowed with a fragrant and utterly charming bouquet, quite autumnal with decayed leaves complementing the pretty red fruit. The palate is flesh and sappy, certainly a more feminine and light-hearted Les Saint-Georges compared to other vintages. Gorgeous pencil lead and tobacco notes lend character towards the finely-tuned finish. Superb! Tasted at the Gouges retrospective at La Cabotte." —Neal Martin

"Lively scents of red fruits, blackberries, and stones are found in the complex aromatics of the stellar 2002 Nuits-St.-Georges Les St.-Georges. Its mouth-coating, satiny waves of candied red cherries, blackberries, flowers, and spices conquer the palate. This medium to full-bodied wine has exceptional elegance, loads of deep underlying fruit, and a prolonged, super-ripe finish." —Pierre Rovani
