2019 Côte de Nuits

2019 Hautes-Côtes de Nuits, Fontaine St Martin, Domaine Michel Gros Dry | Red | Still | 14%

This large 7 hectare vineyard in the hills above Nuits-St-Georges has wonderful limestone soils, quite similar to those found on the hill of Corton, though with a much fresher climate, of course. It is wild and fresh, with a hedgerow fruit aroma and a long, and ripe finish. This has done particularly well in 2019.

Ready: 2022 - 2026

2019 Vosne-Romanée, Domaine Michel Gros Dry | Red | Still | 14%

If you are looking for good value in Vosne-Romanée, you’re on the right track here. It comes from three well-placed parcels, including Aux Réas which extends on from the premier cru, along with La Colombière, and Au Dessus de la Rivière. It is dark and deep, with luscious black cherries on the palate and a smooth, creamy texture. This is a brilliant example of Burgundy’s most highly-prized village.

Ready: 2023 - 2029
