Product Description:
Domaine Michel Gros Vosne-Romanée 1er Cru Clos des Réas 2023 is a distinguished red Burgundy produced from one of Vosne-Romanée’s historic monopole vineyards. The 2.12-hectare Clos des Réas was acquired by Alphonse Gros in 1860 and has remained within the Gros family ever since. Classified as a Vosne-Romanée Premier Cru, it is now vinified and released exclusively by Domaine Michel Gros. The gently sloping vineyard has an easterly to south-easterly orientation and is distinguished by Bajocian marl containing fossilised shell material. Its vines average more than 40 years of age, providing naturally concentrated Pinot Noir fruit with depth and structural definition.
The 2023 vintage presents the refined, perfumed character associated with both the vineyard and the Vosne-Romanée appellation. Aromas of black cherry, blueberry and violet are complemented by darker fruit, subtle exotic spice and discreet oak influence. The palate is medium-bodied and vibrant, combining succulent red berry fruit with finely textured yet youthful tannins. White pepper, allspice and mineral nuances contribute complexity without overwhelming the wine’s elegant fruit profile. Its impressive persistence and firm underlying structure suggest excellent potential for development with careful cellaring.
