About the Producer Robert Groffier Père & Fils
Domaine Robert Groffier Père et Fils is a family vineyard much-loved by amateurs. The bike racer Jules Groffier founded this seven-hectare domain situated on the superb parcels of Chambolle Musigny, Bonnes Mares de Clos de Bèze. Robert Groffier, who now manages the domain with his son Serge, is considered one of the best winemakers in the Côte d'Or. Great care is taken over the vines and yields are rigorously controlled. This gives rise to wines that express a wonderful interpretation of Pinot Noir. Since 2005 Nicolas Groffier has joined the domain and manages vinification. The vines are mostly located in Chambolle-Musigny and include the famous plot Les Amoureuses. The wines of this domain show a great finesse, with a very silky texture, but also power and structure. They are perfect for a long ageing.
