Henri Gouges Henri Gouges Bourgogne Rouge 2016

The Domaine Gouges 2016 Bourgogne rouge is another excellent example of this level in this vintage. The wine offers up a lovely nose of black cherries, cassis, dark chocolate, a fine base of soil and a smoky topnote. On the palate the wine is medium-full, complex and well-balanced, with lovely length and grip and impressive backend tension between the fruit, soil and acidity. Fine Bourgogne. JOHN GILMAN
