  August 15, 2014 - A whole bunch of great wines with new and old friends (Marblehead, Ohio): I really like Grofffier especially in 2002. Some feel he is a bit heavy handed but with 12 years from vintage, this wine is drinking pure Burgundy. Pop and pour, it took about an hour or so to open up. The nose is gorgeous with cherries and slight merde and a bit of floral and perhaps some tarragon. Feminine. Soft texture. Complex layers to drink. No hurry but this was very pretty. right now the nose is better than the palate, slightly, but I think some time in the cellar and it catches up.
