The 2023 vintage at Domaine Michel Gros reflects a straightforward growing season, yielding wines of remarkable clarity and finesse. The fruit was healthy and uncomplicated, and the resulting wines benefit from soft tannins, making them accessible in youth while promising the capacity for graceful ageing.
"From 45–50-year-old vines, this Premier Cru captivates with an aromatic profile of bright red berry fruit and hints of baked spice. The palate is lush and long, with ripe, plentiful tannins that promise excellent ageing potential. The use of 50% new oak lends structure without overshadowing the wine's vibrant fruit character."
Our note
This vintage exemplifies the domaine’s hallmark of precision and balance, with each cuvée offering a distinct reflection of its terroir and thoughtful vinification practices.
What the critics say:
"A lot of oak on the nose, but good tension and intensity on the palate. The ripeness is complemented by a colder tannic grip, and the finish is well-sustained. I prefer this to the Clos des Réas this year. 2027–35."
"The 2023 Vosne-Romanée Aux Brûlées 1er Cru has quite an expressive nose, with black cherries, fresh fig and light licorice scents gradually emerging-though its 50% new oak is quite vocal. The palate is medium-bodied with supple tannins, finely balanced with (again) the new oak shaping the mid-palate and finish. There is a good Aux Brûlées here, though you'll have to wait for the oak to be assimilated."
