Very old vines - the oldest of the domaine. Silky volume, black cherry fruit - the wild side is there, but perhaps not as wild as it can be. There's a core of sweetness of fruit and generosity rounding it out. Drinking range: 2035 - 2050 L&S (Nov 2025)

(from a .93 ha parcel originally planted in 1904). A notably ripe nose is comprised by liqueur-like notes of poached plum, black cherry and humus-tinged earth. The rich and solidly concentrated, especially in the context of the vintage, medium-bodied flavors possess good power on balanced, firm and even more compact finale. This too needs better depth so plan on at least a few years of cellaring. Drinking range: 2035 - Rating: 91-93 Allen Meadows, www.Burghound.com (Jan 2025)

The 2023 Clos de Vougeot le Grand Maupertui Grand Cru, from vines planted in 1904, has an inviting nose: raspberry and blackcurrant fruit, touches of cranberry coming through with time and a dash of Provençal herbs. The palate is medium-bodied with a sapid entry and gentle grip, well balanced with a harmonious, lightly spiced finish that lingers tenderly. Drinking range: 2030 - 2065 Rating: 93-95 Neal Martin, www.vinous.com (Jan 2025)

The original planting has reached 120-year-old in 2024. A gorgeous full bright purple colour. A solid plump right of dark fruit, black and red cherries, the tannins are really refined, and the acidity keeps a fresh feel at the finish. Really successful this year. Drinking range: 2030 - 2037 Rating: **** Jasper Morris - Inside Burgundy  (Nov 2024)

Domaine Anne Gros

Anne Gros joined her father François at the family domaine in Vosne Romanée in 1988, having given up her arts studies in favour of viticulture and oenology at Beaune and Dijon, and has run the domaine alone since 1995. The Domaine now has 6.5 hectares of Pinot and Chardonnay. Anne describes herself as being 'wary of certainties and keen to preserve her freedom'.

In the vineyards Anne practises viticulture influenced by organic and biodynamic principles, and the vineyards are ploughed and fertilised with compost, but although she believes that the long-term health of the vineyards are best preserved by such methods, she likes to maintain the freedom to use conventional treatments when necessary.

In the cellar, the wines are classically made, in cement tanks for the reds, and stainless steel for the whites. They are then are aged in barrel for up to fifteen months, with 80% new wood for the grand crus, 50% for the village wines and 30% for the regional wines. Anne is quietly meticulous and almost obsessive about cleanliness in her cellar, which perhaps is reflected in the delicacy and restrained tension in her wines, which have aromatic clarity, limpid precision, sheer joie de vivre, lively balance and persistence.
