    Producer

    The Domaine Gros Frère et Soeur vineyard is planted on clay-limestone soils, typical of the Côte de Nuits, which impart minerality and finesse to the wines. The vines, averaging 30 years old, benefit from optimal sunshine, promoting slow and balanced ripening of the grapes. Each plot is cultivated with care, respecting the natural cycles to preserve the authenticity of the terroir. This meticulous attention to the vines guarantees exceptional quality and a pure expression of Clos de Vougeot.

    Owner and history

    The current owners of Domaine Gros Frère et Soeur, the Gros family, have been perpetuating a family winemaking tradition for generations. Their passion for the vine and their deep connection to the terroir are reflected in every bottle they produce. Committed to sustainable viticulture, they strive to pass on their expertise while preserving the environment. Their efforts are rewarded with wines that tell a story—the story of a unique place and meticulous work—thus celebrating the heritage of Burgundy.

    Vinification and aging

    The vinification of Clos de Vougeot 2016 is carried out with deep respect for Burgundian traditions. The grapes, carefully harvested by hand, are destemmed before being placed in vats. Fermentation takes place with indigenous yeasts, promoting the expression of the terroir. After aging in oak barrels, approximately 30% of which are new, the wine matures slowly, developing complexity and elegance. Extended bottle aging allows the wine to fully blossom, offering a beautiful harmony between power and finesse.

    The team's opinion

    Clos Vougeot impresses with its racy power, its aromatic depth of black fruits and spices, and its ample and silky palate supported by a long and elegant finish.
