Vosne Romanée Aux Réas, Domaine Anne-Francoise Gros 2010

Here the nose is similar to that of the Maizières but with more soil influence that also extends to the rich, round and silky flavors where the supporting tannins are somewhat finer, all wrapped in a complex, long and equally well-balanced finish that is equally persistent. While the characters of these two wines do resemble one another, they are clearly not identical as the Maizières is more robust and the Aux Réas somewhat finer. Drink: 2017+.
