Domaine Groffier lies in Morey, but its seven-hectare domaine contains few vines from the commune. Its main holdings are in next-door Chambolle, where it owns substantial parts in the finest 1ers and grands crus (including the biggest part of Amoureuses), as well as some excellent Gevrey vineyards, Clos de Bèze among them. Although it has consistently produced fine, elegant wine, it has been a little under the radar until recently, when Nicolas Groffier took over from his grandfather Robert and father Serge. A young man of firm opinions, he has taken quality to an unprecedented level, and the wines are now very sought-after.
Nicolas’s vines suffered a little from drought, but he harvested a crop of healthy grapes beginning on the 26 August. Drought means dry tannins, so to avoid extracting them he opted for a longer, cooler fermentation, with little punching down – infusion rather than extraction – and delayed the malolactic fermentation until July the next year to preserve freshness. Once again, he has produced a lovely range.
