【Nuits-Saint-Georges 之王 —— Henri Gouges 】
Domaine Henri Gouges的歷史並非只是簡單的家族傳承,它幾乎就是半部現代Burgundy發展史。酒莊正式成立於第一次世界大戰後的1919年,由Burgundy先驅Henri Gouges創立。Henri Gouges本人曾任Nuits-Saint-Georges鎮長,曾與Marquis d’Angerville侯爵等人一起抗擊Burgundy氾濫的假酒。他是最早倡導「酒莊裝瓶」(Domaine Bottling)的開拓者之一,還參與了法國國家法定產區研究所(INAO)的建立與現代Burgundy分級制度的確立。
如今酒莊由第四代繼承人 Grégory Gouges 和 Antoine Gouges堂兄弟執掌。全酒莊僅擁有約14公頃的葡萄園,且 100% 全部位於Nuits-Saint-Georges內。這種極度聚焦單一村落的做法,讓他們成為了Nuits-Saint-Georges風土的「活字典」。酒莊手握7塊一級園,幾乎涵蓋了該村最好的地塊,其中尤為著名的包括Les Saints-Georges、Clos des Porrets-St-Georges以及Les Pruliers。此外,酒莊的葡萄藤平均樹齡高達50年,部分老藤甚至超過90年,低產且果實風味極度濃縮。
TASTING NOTE BY WINE CRITICS
The 2012 Nuits Saint-Georges Les Pruliers 1er Cru has an absolutely charming bouquet with pure red cherry, strawberry and cranberry scents, and an underlying mineral note that becomes more prominent with aeration. It just feels refined and self-assured. The palate is very poised and harmonious on the entry, a mixture of red and black fruit, spicier than the 2011 or 2010 with a sense of energy and tension towards the linear finish. This has great potential and shows off the class of this Premier Cru. Tasted at the Gouges retrospective at La Cabotte.
