Located in Vosne-Romanée, Domaine Anne Gros covers approximately 6.5 hectares across nine appellations. Anne Gros is part of an extensive winemaking family who joined her father François at the family estate in 1988. Part of Anne’s portfolio is this Richebourg, one of the six Grand Cru single vineyards in the Vosne-Romanée appellation. The growing season in 1996 had a cool and dry spring, which led to an even flowering and a good fruit set. The summer months were warm with some heat spikes, but overall, the weather remained relatively dry. This allowed the grapes to ripen slowly and evenly, developing optimal flavours and retaining good acidity.

Vinous
Similar red-ruby color. Fabulous, noble aromas of black cherry, black raspberry, flowers, minerals and sappy oak. Juicy black fruit flavors of extraordinary intensity and sweetness. Uncanny inner-mouth perfume. The explosive finish builds and builds. One of the high points of the vintage.Stephen Tanzer1st March 1999
