Reviews:
- Wine Advocate: The 2007 Clos de Vougeot-Musigni is another harmonious wine from Gros. Sweet red fruit, flowers and anise are some of the nuances that emerge from this mid-weight Burgundy. The Clos de Vougeot-Musigni has great persistence and terrific poise. Hints of tobacco and cedar add complexity on the close.
- James Suckling: Needs air to reveal fragrant cherry, berry, sandalwood, floral and mineral aromas and flavors, but settles in nicely, with sweetness and intensity midpalate. There’s grip and a lingering aftertaste of spice and mineral.
Producer Information
Domaine Gros Frère et Soeur is a Burgundy wine producer based in Vosne-Romanée. It makes a range of Pinot Noir-based wines from some of the region’s top vineyards, including the grands crus Richebourg, Échezeaux, Grands Échezeaux and Clos de Vougeot. The domaine also makes white and red Hautes Côtes de Nuits wines, and wines from other vineyards in Vosne-Romanée. Gros Frère et Soeur has its origins in the 1963 division of the Louis Gros estate. This was divided between his four children, and Gustave and Colette Gros combined their shares to form Gros Frère et Soeur. It is currently run by Colette’s nephew Bernard Gros. The estate is known for its high use of new oak (in some cases, the grand cru wines get as much as 100 percent new oak). However, the grand cru holdings around Vosne-Romanée are not vast, with just under 0.7 hectares (1.7 acres) in Richebourg, 0.3 hectares (0.7 acres) in Grands Échezeaux and 0.9 hectares (2.2 acres) in Échezeaux.
