Vosne-Romanée. There is no more revered address in all of Burgundy — no village whose name carries more weight, more history, or more desire among wine lovers the world over. This is the home of Romanée-Conti, of La Tâche, of Richebourg — the greatest Pinot Noir vineyards on earth. And it is here that the Gros family have farmed their vines for generations, producing wines of extraordinary purity and precision that rank among the finest expressions of the village. Michel Gros is one of the domaine’s most celebrated figures, and this village Vosne-Romanée is his calling card: a blend of fruit from three beautifully situated parcels — Aux Réas, which extends directly from the Premier Cru boundary, La Colombière, and Au Dessus de la Rivière — each contributing something distinct to a wine of remarkable complexity and depth. The 2019 vintage was one of the greatest in Burgundy for a generation, and this wine shows exactly why: dark and profound in the glass, with a nose of extraordinary elegance — luscious black cherry, wild raspberry, and a haunting floral lift, layered with the subtle earthiness and forest floor complexity that is the unmistakable signature of great Vosne. On the palate it is silky and seamless, with a smooth, creamy texture, beautifully integrated tannins, and a finish of breathtaking length and precision. Village Burgundy in name only — in character and quality, this is something altogether more rare and special. At £99.99, it is one of the finest bottles we stock.
