His father Michel is never far away with ready counsel and advice, but this is Pierre’s ship now, and he’s steering it beautifully. Like many of his peer group Pierre has moved the domaine toward organics, and his wines are clean and pure – they sport the same polish as his fathers’ with perhaps a bit more concentration of fruit and slightly longer finishes.The Nuits-Saint-Georges cuvée comes from parcels on the northern side of the village adjoining Vosne-Romanée. Hints of the famous Vosne spice show up in the nose, and the impression is of elegance more than meatiness. Less (-) Free US Shipping | |

Neal Martin writes “I detect a change in tack rather than charting a totally different course.” Like many of his peer group Pierre has moved the domaine toward organics, and if his first few vintages at the helm are any indication, the future at Gros may be even brighter than the past.The cuvée blended from four Nuits plots on the other side of town more resembles Vosne-Romanée, its neighbor to the north. Here the fruit includes more floral notes and a hint of Vosne spice. It may need a bit of time for the elements to integrate, but as always it will end up as a classic, elegant red Burgundy of much finesse. Less (-) Free US Shipping | |

The wine shows gorgeous aromatics and a fleshy core, with excellent tension and a solid backbone typical of Nuits. Burghound found “chocolate, cassis and dark currant liqueur” notes, calling it “rich, ripe, palate coating and seductively textured” with “very good punch.” Less (-) Free US Shipping | |

Like many of his peer group Pierre has moved the domaine toward organics, and his wines are clean and pure – they sport the same polish as his fathers’ with perhaps a bit more concentration of fruit and slightly longer finishes.The Nuits-Saint-Georges premier cru is often the sleeper among the domaine’s special-occasion wines. Produced in very small quantities from very old vines that yield much millerandage, the wines are intense and long-lived. The 2023 is dark and masculine with a dense, chewy mouth that will require cellaring. Less (-) Free US Shipping | |

In 2023 it showed particularly well from barrel, with ripe dark fruit, good concentration and excellent balance. An umami note typical of Nuits-St-Georges appears alongside cinnamon, licorice and violets, with an elegant nose and beguiling texture. Less (-) Free US Shipping |
