Bourgogne AOC Pinot Blanc 2022 Domaine Henri Gouges

The Bourgogne Pinot Blanc by Henri Gouges is a rare and distinctive white wine, produced exclusively from Pinot Blanc, the result of an ancient mass selection known as "Pinot Gouges", obtained from a spontaneous mutation of Pinot Noir. This wine originates from a 0.7-hectare parcel located at about 375 meters of altitude, on a plateau overlooking the Côte de Nuits. The shallow soil, rich in red clay and rocks, contributes to a pure and complex aromatic profile, a true expression of the Nuits-Saint-Georges terroir.

The low yields, manual harvest, and an 18-month aging in oak barrels allow for the production of elegant wines, which can express themselves from a young age but also have great evolution potential.

In the glass, it presents a bright pale yellow color. The bouquet is characterized by aromas of white flowers, citrus, and light notes of almond and wet stone. On the palate, it is fine and balanced, with good mineral freshness that accompanies a delicate texture and a harmonious persistence, a typical and refined expression of Burgundy Pinot Blanc.

Perfect with fish dishes, grilled vegetables, or fresh cheeses.
