Geographical location of Domaine Alain Gras

Domaine Alain Gras is located in the commune of Saint-Romain, Burgundy. The village lies between Meursault and Pommard. In all, Alain Gras manages 12 hectares of vines on the Côte de Beaune. He owns parcels in the commune of Saint-Romain, but also in Auxey-Duresses and Meursault. On this terroir, the vines grow on sloping ground and benefit from clay-limestone soil. The vines must therefore sink their roots into rocky soil. This specificity of the Côte de Beaune terroir lends fresh, mineral notes to Alain Gras wines.

Domaine Alain Gras wines

The domaine produces only Village appellation Burgundy wines. Alain Gras offers a bottle of Saint-Romain Rouge, a Pinot Noir with a very fruity mouthfeel.

With his vines in Meursault, the winemaker produces a white wine cuvée. The Meursault Chardonnay is powerful and well-balanced on the palate.
