About

Pure Aristocratic Elegance in the Côte de Nuits Headquartered in the legendary winemaking village of Vosne-Romanée, Domaine Michel Gros represents one of the most prestigious lineages in Burgundy. The Gros family history in Vosne dates back to 1830, when Alphonse Gros established the family’s first vineyard holdings. Following generations of division and expansion, Michel Gros—who took over management from his father Jean Gros in 1995 and is now joined by his son Pierre—has maintained the estate’s reputation for crafting remarkably consistent, aromatic, and velvety Pinot Noir. Domaine Michel Gros is distinguished by its meticulous parcel selection, pristine cellaring, and management of historic sites, most notably its iconic monopole Premier Cru, Vosne-Romanée 1er Cru Clos des Réas . By combining traditional Burgundian passion with modern technical precision, the domaine delivers wines characterized by supple tannins, opulent red fruit, and seamless cellaring longevity. Viticultural Philosophy & Winemaking Craft Precise Vineyard Management: The domaine farms over 23 hectares across Vosne-Romanée, Chambolle-Musigny, Morey-Saint-Denis, and the Hautes-Côtes de Nuits. Sustainable viticulture and low yields preserve natural acidity and fruit purity. Controlled Maceration & Temperature Control: Grapes are 100% destemmed before undergoing a temperature-controlled fermentation to extract vibrant color and silky tannins without harsh astringency. Custom Oak Maturation: Wines are aged in French oak barrels (ranging from 30% new oak for Village bottlings to 100% new oak for Grand Crus and top Premier Crus) for 18 months, imparting subtle spice, vanilla, and structural complexity.
