Michel Gros, Vosne Romanee Brulees Vintage:2012 The overtly rich and lush

The overtly rich and lush medium-bodied flavors possess an opulent mouthfeel along with a lovely texture while offering markedly better complexity on the balanced and lingering finish

In this very warm vintage the winemaking team opted to block most of the malolactic fermentation (70%) to preserve freshness

a mixture of red and black fruit mixed with sage

This is class in a glass but note well that ample patience will be necessary

Michel Gros, Vosne Romanee Brulees Vintage:2012 The overtly rich and lush(35+ year old vines that abut the A. F. Gros Richebourg parcel in Veroilles). Prominent but not dominant wood frames the spicy aromas that are comprised mostly by notes of cassis, violet and anise. The more refined and precise if less concentrated flavors brim with evident minerality that also suffuses the moderately austere, long and well balanced finale. Some patience will be required.
