The Gros family established itself in Vosne-Romanée in 1830, and Michel Gros represents the sixth generation of this historic Burgundian winegrowing dynasty. The domaine was formally established under Michel Gros in 1979 and today encompasses approximately 23 hectares of vineyards. Its approach combines traditional Burgundian craftsmanship with environmentally considered vineyard practices, including reduced reliance on chemical treatments, soil cultivation and grass cover in suitable parcels. These methods are intended to preserve vineyard balance while allowing the individual character of each appellation to remain clearly expressed.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe grapes for this red Bourgogne Hautes-Côtes de Nuits are harvested by hand and vinified using traditional methods, with fermentation conducted at controlled temperatures. The wine undergoes approximately eighteen months of maturation, beginning with six months in large oak vessels before a further twelve months in traditional Burgundian barrels, including a restrained proportion of new oak. This measured élevage gives the wine additional structure and complexity without obscuring its fresh Pinot Noir character. The 2023 vintage presents a floral and finely detailed aromatic profile, combining Morello cherry, raspberry and orange blossom with red cherry, subtle kirsch and gentle oak spice. Its medium-bodied palate is shaped by fine-grained tannins, bright acidity and a pleasant chalky mineral character. The fruit remains lively and precise, while the oak contributes framing and savoury depth rather than excessive richness. A lightly structured finish suggests that the wine will be most enjoyable in its youth and over the next several years. It is a refined and versatile red Burgundy that will pair beautifully with roast duck, pork tenderloin, mushroom dishes, charcuterie and soft-rind cheeses.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTasting Notes\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNOSE\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e– Floral and finely detailed\u003cbr\u003eMorello cherry, raspberry, orange blossom, red cherry, kirsch and discreet oak spice.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePALATE\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e– Fresh and finely structured\u003cbr\u003eBright red fruit, fine-boned tannins, vibrant acidity and a subtle chalky mineral character.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFINISH\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e– Precise and lightly savoury\u003cbr\u003eLingering cherry, raspberry, gentle oak spice and a pleasantly dry, mineral conclusion.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFiner Details:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eStyle – Red Wine\u003cbr\u003eVarietal – Pinot Noir\u003cbr\u003eCountry – France\u003cbr\u003eRegion – Burgundy, Bourgogne Hautes-Côtes de Nuits\u003cbr\u003eVintage – 2023\u003cbr\u003eBottle Size – 750ml\u003cbr\u003eABV – 13%\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Domaine Michel Gros","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44064560676951,"sku":"MICGROS-HCDN-23","price":89.99,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0043\/9258\/3217\/files\/e50c0bf7-bc1d-4f96-854b-8a4ec9014903.webp?v=1784769738"},{"product_id":"domaine-michel-gros-hautes-cotes-de-nuits-fontaine-saint-martin-blanc-2023","title":"Domaine Michel Gros Hautes Cotes de Nuits Fontaine Saint Martin Blanc 2023","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eProduct Description:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe Domaine Michel Gros Bourgogne Hautes-Côtes de Nuits Fontaine Saint Martin Blanc 2023 is a single-vineyard Chardonnay from the elevated Hautes-Côtes de Nuits in Burgundy. Fontaine Saint Martin is a monopole of Domaine Michel Gros, giving the domaine sole control over the vineyard and its viticultural direction. The Chardonnay comes from approximately 3.25 hectares of vines more than twenty years old, planted on a hillside distinguished by limestone-rich “Pernand marls.” These soils are particularly well suited to producing Chardonnay with freshness, mineral definition and restrained richness. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe grapes are harvested by hand, destemmed and crushed before undergoing an overnight period of skin contact in tank. After pressing, the must is transferred to casks while fermentation is still underway, allowing alcoholic fermentation to finish slowly in barrel. Approximately 20% new oak is employed, with regular lees stirring contributing texture and complexity before the wine is blended, filtered and bottled. The 2023 vintage displays floral, apple and citrus-peel aromas, complemented by ripe orchard fruit and discreet oak. Its palate is generous yet refreshing, combining a fleshy texture with clean acidity and a subtle mineral current. The finish remains dry, energetic and citrus-driven, making this a refined example of Chardonnay from the higher slopes west of the Côte de Nuits. It is well suited to grilled fish, shellfish, roast poultry, creamy vegetable dishes and soft cheeses. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTasting Notes\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNOSE\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e– Floral and citrus-driven\u003cbr\u003eWhite flowers, freshly sliced apple, orange peel, lemon zest and restrained oak.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePALATE\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e– Generous and mineral\u003cbr\u003eRipe orchard fruit, citrus, a fleshy mid-palate and subtle mineral tension balanced by refreshing acidity.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFINISH\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e– Clean and energetic\u003cbr\u003eDry and persistent, with lingering lemon peel, apple and gentle mineral notes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eReviews \u0026amp; Accolades\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e2026 Hautes-Côtes Wine Excellence Award — selected as one of the award-winning Bourgogne Hautes-Côtes de Nuits wines following a tasting of 101 cuvées by a panel of 31 judges. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFiner Details:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eStyle – White Wine\u003cbr\u003eVarietal – Chardonnay\u003cbr\u003eCountry – France\u003cbr\u003eRegion – Burgundy, Bourgogne Hautes-Côtes de Nuits\u003cbr\u003eVintage – 2023\u003cbr\u003eBottle Size – 750ml\u003cbr\u003eABV – 13% \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Domaine Michel Gros","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44064564740183,"sku":"MICGROS-HCDN-FSM-B-23","price":99.99,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0043\/9258\/3217\/files\/dd7cc219-5b34-4c59-941a-751d7c734fbd.webp?v=1784770044"},{"product_id":"domaine-michel-gros-gevrey-chambertin-la-platiere-2023","title":"Domaine Michel Gros Gevrey-Chambertin La Platière 2023","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eProduct Description:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe Domaine Michel Gros Gevrey-Chambertin La Platière 2023 is a single-vineyard Pinot Noir from the village appellation of Gevrey-Chambertin in Burgundy’s Côte de Nuits. La Platière lies within the alluvial cone below the Lavaux valley, where silt and limestone material accumulated over centuries to form a clay-rich, calcareous subsoil. Domaine Michel Gros associates this terroir with wines that combine suppleness and depth while retaining the structure expected of Gevrey-Chambertin. The vineyard’s vines are reported to average approximately 45 years of age, contributing concentration and definition to the finished wine. Production is limited, with an average vineyard yield of approximately 40 hectolitres per hectare. The wine is produced entirely from Pinot Noir and carries the AOC Gevrey-Chambertin designation. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePrimary fermentation takes place in epoxy-lined concrete tanks before the wine is transferred to French oak barrels for maturation. The 2023 release was matured for approximately 18 months in oak, with new barrels accounting for around 25% to 30% of the élevage, followed by an additional period in stainless steel before release. This measured use of new oak adds structure and savoury complexity without dominating the vineyard character. The wine shows ripe red and dark berries accompanied by earthy tones, gentle spice, wild herbs and discreet toasted-oak notes. Fresh acidity and fine tannins bring definition to its deep, sappy palate, balancing Gevrey-Chambertin’s natural generosity with refinement. Its structure suggests that it will become more integrated and expressive with careful bottle development. The combination of depth, freshness and polished tannins makes it a fitting accompaniment to roast duck, beef tenderloin, venison, mushroom dishes and mature cheeses.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTasting Notes\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNOSE\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e– Dark and expressive\u003cbr\u003eBlack cherry, raspberry and blackberry layered with gentle spice, forest floor, wild herbs and discreet toasted oak.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePALATE\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e– Deep and finely structured\u003cbr\u003eRipe red and dark fruits supported by fresh acidity, fine tannins, earthy complexity and a subtle chalky mineral character.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFINISH\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e– Savoury and persistent\u003cbr\u003eLingering dark cherry, spice, earth and restrained oak carried by a firm yet polished structure.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFiner Details:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eStyle – Red Wine\u003cbr\u003eVarietal – Pinot Noir\u003cbr\u003eCountry – France\u003cbr\u003eRegion – Burgundy, Côte de Nuits, Gevrey-Chambertin\u003cbr\u003eVintage – 2023\u003cbr\u003eBottle Size – 750ml\u003cbr\u003eABV – 14%\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Domaine Michel Gros","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44064568016983,"sku":"MICGROS-GEVLPLAT-23","price":219.99,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0043\/9258\/3217\/files\/458320ac-57c8-4329-91b7-2c7b93a980b1.webp?v=1784770416"},{"product_id":"domaine-michel-gros-vosne-romanee-2023","title":"Domaine Michel Gros Vosne-Romanée 2023","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eProduct Description:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe Domaine Michel Gros Vosne-Romanée 2023 is a village-level Pinot Noir from one of the Côte de Nuits’ most celebrated appellations.

Each site contributes a different dimension, bringing together floral perfume, dark-fruited richness and the refined texture associated with the village. The 2023 fruit was completely destemmed before fermentation, preserving purity while avoiding excessive stem-derived structure.
