Who makes it

Domaine Michel Gros works with village Vosne-Romanée and Clos des Réas, a walled vineyard whose enclosure creates a protective microclimate. Michel Gros brings meticulous attention to detail to the work. The range includes a village wine and a named Premier Cru site wine.

Where it grows

Clos des Réas sits within Vosne-Romanée behind a wall built between 1800 and 1810. The enclosure allows harvests two or three days earlier than in the rest of the village, giving the parcel a different harvest calendar from its neighbours.

What they make

Two red wines give the range its hierarchy. The 2023 Vosne-Romanée Clos des Réas Michel Gros is the village level wine. The 2021 Vosne Romanée Premier Cru Clos des Réas Michel Gros is the named site wine. Premier Cru is the Burgundy vineyard level above village wine and below Grand Cru, so the labels move from a village appellation to a classified vineyard.

Note. The exact family succession after the 1963 property division, including which heir established Domaine Michel Gros, remains unclear.
