Bourgogne Pinot Noir Anne Gros 1999

The wine

With its ruby colour, this Pinot Noir is a concentration of red fruits. Its élevage in barrels (30% new wood) brings a fatty quality and allows the tannins to soften. An ideal wine to lift the richness of a red or white meat dish. To be enjoyed today or in the 5 years to come.

When she took over from her father in 1988, as she was only 18, Anne Gros was a young energetic woman, more interested in books than in becoming a winemaker! Nevertheless, she took on alone the work in the vines and was responsible for vinification and managing the business. In 1990 she bottled all of the harvest and connoisseurs around the world discovered the strength, finesse, delicateness and precision of her wines. The domain was officially established in 1995. Within ten years, she made it into one of the best and most renowned domains from the Côte de Nuits. Besides Clos Vougeot, Vosne Romanée and Chambolle Musigny, other appellations from new plots were added to the range (Hautes Côtes de Nuits et Bourgogne for example).
