Produced by Domaine Robert Groffier Père & Fils, this distinguished Pinot Noir reflects the elegance, aromatic complexity and refined structure associated with one of Burgundy's most sought-after vineyard sites.
The 2018 vintage was generally warm and generous across Burgundy, producing wines with ripe fruit, concentration and an appealingly rounded character. This cuvée is expected to display expressive cherry, raspberry and dark berry flavours, complemented by floral aromas, subtle spice and earthy mineral nuances. Fine tannins and balanced acidity provide structure, helping to maintain freshness alongside the vintage's generous fruit profile.
