Tasting notes
Bright red. Less fruity on the nose than the premier crus from Vosne-Romanée, offering aromas of minerals, garrigue , white flowers and nutty oak. Large-scaled, round and smooth, displaying a suave texture and good vinosity. More about soil and minerals than primary fruits. Finishes with substantial tannins and an emerging rocky quality.

The 2013 Nuits Saint Georges 1er Cru les Roncières could be one of Etienne Grivot's finest offerings. It has a more red fruit spectrum than the Pruliers with red cherries, mint and then later, earthy aromas developing. There is good transparency here. The palate is very tense and ripe, the acidity more “cutting” than the Pruliers with more mineralité on the vivacious finish. Excellent.
