Tasting Notes

Goedhuis, December 2020
The higher altitude vineyards of the Hautes Côtes are known for their relative coolness and, as a result, with the growing concern for climate change, are increasingly catching the eye of vineyard owners. AF Gros has 4 hectares from which they produce a lovely vibrant, red-fruited style. Very pure and very Pinot. Is this the future?

Jasper Morris MW, November 2020,
Score: 86-88Pretty brisk mid purple, the bouquet is immediately charming, sweet fresh raspberry fruit, uncomplicated and delicious with very good persistence. Drink young as this is unlikely to gain extra nuances later. Normally they make 17 barrels, this year only 13 and just 5 in 2020! 4 Star

Producer
Domaine Anne-Françoise Gros

The name Gros is one of the most famous in the Côte de Nuits, synonymous with great Vosne Romaneé. The original Gros domaine is now divided amongst four family members. Anne-Françoise, daughter of Jean Gros, married into another great Burgundy dynasty, the Parent family of Pommard. In 1998 François Parent and Anne Françoise combined their domaines to create a superb 10 hectare property comprising some of the finest terroirs in the Côte d’Or. Today their children Caroline and Mathias run the estate, with Mathias ever experimenting and pushing boundaries in both vineyard and cellar.
Region
Bourgogne
This blanket regional appellation can apply to wines throughout Burgundy (60% of the area's production) as long as they comply with regulations relating to grape type, yield and alcohol content. Reds and roses are from Pinot Noir or Gamay. Whites are Chardonnay. They are usually the most straightforward of the Burgundy wines, and as a result are the least expensive and the most approachable upon release. In the hands of a more serious producer these can represent exceptional value and quality. The wines are made with the same care and attention to detail as their grander wines. However, they may not qualify for a village or communal appellation because the vines are too young or the vineyard area is outside the appellation boundary.
