Domaine Gros Frère & Sœur

It's not always easy to follow the successions and partitions of the Domaines of these great Burgundian families over the generations.

This is the case for the Gros family, whose original name was Louis Gros.

This Domaine was split into 3 in the 1960s to give rise to the Domaines Anne Gros, A-F.Gros and Gros Frère et Sœur.

It is indeed the latter that is evoked here. Its history begins with Colette (the sister) and Gustave (the brother), Louis' children, who after inheritance launch their 20ha Domaine in Vosne Romanée in 1963, including 4 parcels in Grand Cru, on Richebourg, Echezeaux, Grands Echezeaux and Clos de Vougeot.

In 1984, their nephew Bernard took over from Gustave and steered the House's style towards more expressive, concentrated wines. In the late 1990s he bought a 12-hectare parcel (3 white, 9 red) in the commune of Concoeur et Corboin in Hautes Côtes de Nuits.

Today his son Vincent has joined him on Domaine.

The finest cuvées are generous and structured, they require time, you have to be patient ... the tasting then offers balanced, harmonious wines with a silky, voluptuous texture, it's a real moment of emotion.
