A slightly more elegant if more restrained nose offers up spiced plum and dark currant scents along with attractive floral hints and in particular lavender and violet. The medium weight flavors possess a velvety and caressing mouthfeel before concluding in a sappy and dusty if mildly tangy finish. This is serious and more obviously structured and a wine that will need at least a few years of cellaring first. Drink: 2027+ - BH91
Domaine Gros Frere et Soeur is a Burgundy wine producer based in Vosne-Roman?e. It makes a range of Pinot Noir-based wines from some of the region's top vineyards, including the grands crus Richebourg, Echezeaux, Grands ?chezeaux and Clos de Vougeot. The domaine also makes white and red Hautes Cotes de Nuits wines, and wines from several premier cru vineyards in Vosne-Romanee. Gros Frere et Soeur has its origins in the 1963 division of the Louis Gros estate. This was divided between his four children, and Gustave and Colette Gros combined their shares to form Gros Frere et Soeur. It is currently run by Colette's nephew Bernard Gros.
