This Cru was bought by Alphonse Gros in 1860. The site is located on the hillock that overhangs the small Reas valley. Limestone marls define the soil makeup of this vineyard, which ensures excellent drainage. The marls give the wine a silky character, an elegant perfume and a gentle acidity that make it easy to enjoy from its youngest age. This impression, of easy youthful enjoyment, is misleading because this wine will develop incredibly with age while preserving its fruit expression and freshness.

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.

Professional Reviews

Burghound

BH 93
"Reduction dominates everything save for subtle spice wisps that are discernible through the funk. The rich, seductive and caressing medium-bodied flavors also coat the palate thanks to the abundance of dry extract that also buffers the moderately firm tannic spine shaping the balanced and youthfully austere finale. This will also need to develop more depth but like the Nuits 1er, this also has an excellent aging track record."

"The 2021 Vosne-Romanée Clos des Réas 1er Cru, the monopole belonging to Michel Gros, has a fragrant bouquet with sensual wild strawberry and raspberry notes, orange blossom and crushed rock. The palate is medium-bodied with fine tannins, lovely balance, very stylish with a lot of panache towards the finish. This might be one of the most nuanced and desirable Clos des Réas that I have encountered from this address. Bravo." -Vinous
