Fresh and mouth-coating fruit on this Gouges 1er Cru Les St-Georges is perfectly integrated with the aromatic cherry fruit. This has a very long finish cut with a dash of mineral. (CW 5/11/15)

The 2014 Nuits Saint-Georges 1er Cru Les Saint Georges has a perfumed nose with blackberry and bilberry fruit, tangible mineral scents, very fine delineation, cold flint and limestone emerging with time. The palate is medium-bodied with fine tannin, impressive structure, cool, calm and collected, building towards a crisp, tensile tobacco-tinged finish that is deceptively powerful. This will have a lot more to give after bottling, seems resentful that someone would awaken it from its barrel slumber. 91-93 points

(from a 1.1 ha parcel of 55+ year old vines). Once again there is subtle wood present on the spicy, cool and beautifully well-layered nose of ripe dark currant, plum, violet and humus scents. There is a sleek mouth feel to the solidly concentrated and mineral-driven middle weight plus flavors that exhibit outstanding length on the markedly firm finale that is also impeccably well-balanced. Ample patience absolutely required. 92-94 points

It may or may not be prom oted to Grand Cru status, but this is one of the three best vineyards in the village and this interpretation, from a 1.08 hectare parcel, is superb. Fine, focused and well balanced with racy acidity, sweet red fruits and polished tannins. Drink 2020-30. 95 points
