Anne functions both as vigneron and winemaker. The winery was formerly known as Francois Gros until Anne took over in 1988. According to Clive Coates, "Since 1993 Anne Gros has produced some of the finest wines in Burgundy." I would agree wholeheartedly with that statement and I would by her wines by the case if I could afford them.
Holdings: Richebourg, Echezeaux, Clos de Vougeot, village Chambolle-Musigny and Vosne-Romanee. Old vines, some vineyards average 55 years. Even village vineyards are rubbing shoulders with premier and grand cru vineyards often high on the hill with northern exposure.

This wine is a real winner,
a diamond in the rough. The nose is typically Burgundian
with musk, earth, and baby diaper. The symphony of vivid,
fresh red fruit flavors are glorious and mouth filling. The
texture is plush and milky. Tannins are reigned in and the
raspberry kiss on the lengthy finish is quite nice. Impressive
for a wine of this level. Website: www.anne-gros.com.

2004 Domaine Anne Gros Bourgogne
13% alc., $32. Imported by North Berkeley Imports, Berkeley,
CA.
·
An endless potpourri of ripe cherries, wax and Xmas spice keeps your nose in the glass. Red currents
and red raspberries are elegantly presented with fine-grained tannins in the background. Commendable
balance. Like the 2005 version of this wine, quite beguiling.
