Robert Groffier Chambolle 1er Les Sentiers 2022
This domaine is heroic for some, under the radar for others. I wonder if one reason for the latter point of view is because, whereas the vineyards are predominantly in Chambolle-Musigny, the domaine itself is located in Morey-St-Denis where they own virtually no vineyard land, excepting some Bourgogne Passetoutgrains and a sliver of village Morey - which gets put in the Passetoutgrains.
Sentiers is on the border with Morey and shares some of its character. According to Nicolas Groffier, just 40cm of iron-rich clay covers the limestone here. He ferments the wine completely as whole clusters and ages it in cask (one-third new). The finished wine has a deep fig and plum fruit with hints of earth, iron, and tar. The texture is firmly tannic but leavened by the finesse of Chambolle. The overall result is impressive, if a bit fearsome at present – let this settle for five to seven years before opening for best results. Review Date: 01/2024 95 points Decanter
