Anne Gros' portion of Clos Vougeot is a .94ha parcel in Grand Maupertui just under Grands-Echezeaux. The oldest vines of the Domaine are planted here (1904) and the average age of her Pinot Noirs overall is 80 years. With this parcel being at the top of the slope, there is little worry of any of the drainage issues that plague the lower lying lieu-dits.
Clos de Vougeot is an imposing and impressive vineyard to see in person. The wall that encircles its 125 acres, and makes it a true clos, was completed in 1336 some 200 years after its founding in the 1100s. Two massive structures, Château du Clos de Vougeot, and Chateau de la Tour look tiny when viewed from the opposite sides of the vineyard. Clos Vougeot’s size is a detriment some would say but, with the winemaking bar being constantly raised, we believe this Grand Cru, the largest in the Cote de Nuits,can be a good source of value. Of course, if it’s here, it is a fine example.
