Anne Gros Bourgogne Chardonnay 2020

Domaine History

Domaine Anne Gros produced its first Bourgogne Blanc in 1996 as an experimental encounter with Chardonnay. The project continued with the planting of a new parcel in 2016, expanding this small white-wine cuvée in the heart of Vosne-Romanée.

Terroir

This 0.51-hectare Bourgogne Blanc comes from two named parcels on the clay soils of the Vosne-Romanée plain: one third from Les Pasquiers, planted in 1994 (0.17 ha), and two thirds from Les Glapigny, planted in 2016 (0.34 ha).

Winemaking

The wine is aged for 12 months in 500-litre barrels, including 30% new oak, together with stainless-steel ageing. The barrel component brings notes of fresh butter and hazelnut while preserving the wine’s freshness.

Tasting Notes

A generous wine with honeyed aromas of apple and pear. Its bright acidity keeps the palate fresh and prevents the wine from feeling heavy, while notes of fresh butter and hazelnut add depth.

A generous yet fresh Bourgogne Chardonnay, balancing honeyed fruit, bright acidity, and subtle barrel notes.

Pairing

Pair with fish or meat in white sauces, quenelles, foie gras, fresh truffles, or dishes seasoned with sweet spices.
