From the importer: This parcel is located next to the family parcel of Richebourg to the north. It is believed that the name originates from the natural vegetation catching fire during the summer months because of the highly drained, dry soil. The soil is very stony with a 30 to 35cm thickness, and the subsoil is made of hard limestone. This wine offers a great minerality; similar to Richebourg from which it is separated only by a 3-meter-wide lane. But the soil, which is not as thick as the Richebourg's, which brings more softness to the tannins and makes it more rapidly accessible. The wine is aged in 50% new oak.

Aromatically the wine is perfumed with a combination of cherries and blueberries, as well as delicately aged purple flowers. On the palate, the wine is medium-bodied with brambly berry fruits, peppercorns, and smooth tannins.

The term "dynasty" is often used when discussing the Gros Family because of the enormous impact they've had on the recent history of winemaking in Burgundy. The Domaine Gros dates to the early 1800's, but after Jean Gros retired in the early 1990's it was split into 4 estates.

Jean's son Michel inherited the entirety of the Monopole 1er Cru vineyard "Clos Reas" and a few other parcels and has been steadily acquiring other vineyards. Today he farms around 18 hectares in Vosne-Romanée and the surrounding villages.

Michel is both an innovator and a sharp student of tradition. He isn't afraid to experiment a little in the cellar but his focus is always on producing wines of terroir and history. His style emphasizes rich fruit and elegance in balance with the power and longevity of Vosne and Nuits-St-Georges.

With 40 years of experience under his belt now Michel Gros has an excellent grasp of how to best transfer his terroir into the glass.
