Nils made some seriously tasty wines for Groth back in the 80’s. Lucky you getting to try a bottle that has survived.
the GPL is a really great wine. I had the chance to spend some time with it earlier last month as a co-worker brought it to a dinner and was very happy to have had it and one of the more reasonably priced great 82s
Faiveley wines are often overlooked but often are quite good. They have made some drastic changes since 2005 with Erwin Faiveley taking over.
