Domaine Anne Gros Clos Vougeot Le Grand Maupertui is a Grand Cru red Burgundy from the Côte de Nuits. The 2008 vintage highlights the lean, mineral-driven side of this prestigious parcel located at the top of the slope on a bed of hard Comblanchien limestone. Anne Gros focuses on elegance over extraction, using approximately 80% new oak that integrates seamlessly with the fruit over several years of maturation. In 2008, the late harvest ensured phenolic ripeness while maintaining a sharp, refreshing acidic spine that defines the structural profile. The wine shows great clarity, with notes of red-currant, sandalwood and a persistent saline grip on the taut finish.

Good deep red. Raspberry, rose petal and crushed rock on the nose, with a minty lift. Juicy and very pure; there's good flesh here but today it's dominated by the wine's serious structure. A penetrating, pristine wine with terrific force; nothing overdone! The electric back end features exhilarating spicy high tones and a a powerful impression of energy.Stephen Tanzer1st March 2011
