The estate and the wine |
|
|
Based in the heart of Gevrey-Chambertin and Chambolle-Musigny, Domaine Robert Groffier Père et Fils commands these storied appellations with quiet authority.
With two stars from the French wine guide RVF and a devoted following among collectors worldwide, the domaine shines as a beacon of Burgundian elegance, crafting wines of rare finesse and precision.
The estate’s modest 8 hectares are almost entirely rooted in Chambolle-Musigny, including a prized holding in the famed Premier Cru Les Amoureuses. Now under the stewardship of Nicolas Groffier and his sister Julie, the domaine produces wines that rank among the finest in their class—seamless, graceful, and deeply expressive from village level to grand cru.
Every bottle reveals a texture of remarkable silkiness, the result of a winemaking approach centered on purity and concentration drawn directly from the fruit, with thoughtful use of whole-cluster fermentation adding nuance and depth. |
