Wine Description:

Flattering nose on black berry fruits. The palate is supple, with elegant tannins and a spicy finish.

Traditional Burgundian winemaking. For the first six months, these wines are aged in oak casks in a very old cellar located beneath the apartments of Jean Gros. For the following twelve months, aging continues in barrels that have held one to three wines. These barrels, which previously held wines of a higher grade, impart some of the aromas of the previous vintage. This practice develops the complexity of these wines.

Producer Description

Domaine Michel GROS located in Vosne-Romanée, in the heart of the Côte de Nuits, finds its origins in 1830 when the first member of the GROS family settled there and founded his estate.

The following generations have continued to develop the estate’s plot, which currently covers an area of 23 hectares.

The flagship of the estate is Vosne-Romanée 1er Cru ‘Clos des Réas’, which has been operated as a monopoly by the GROS family since its acquisition in 1860.

Today, Pierre GROS (Domaine Michel GROS), 7th generation of this dynasty of winegrowers, continues and develops with the support of his father, Michel, the work undertaken by their ancestors.

Passionate but also very rigorous, Pierre takes constant care in the development of his wines, mastering all stages of production, from the vines to bottling.

A world of work, high standards, sharing and passion to discovery …
