Domaine Gros Frère et Soeur

I tasted in November with Bernard's wife Martine, as Bernard was in the hospital recovering from surgery. According to Martine, the 2008 harvest was late, taking place from September 25 to October 12, but the wines had nonetheless been moved into cuves before the harvest of 2009. Madame Gros noted that "by using our concentrator, there was a risk of concentrating the wines' acids." I would describe what I found as more of a dry edge than obviously elevated acidity. Of course, these wines will also carry a relatively high 13.5% to 14% alcohol into the bottle. Gros had to subject his 2007s to a more stringent filtration than either the 2006s or 2005s as the wines were not as clear. (A Patrick Lesec Selection; importers include Classic Wine Imports, Boston, MA; Noble House, New York, NY) Also recommended: Vosne-Romanee (85). Other wines tasted: Hautes Cotes de Nuits.
