2014 Domaine Jean Grivot, Nuits-Saint-Georges Premier Cru, Ronciere 1x750ml

Robert Parker 93

"Tasted blind at the Burgfest 2014 tasting, Grivot’s 2014 Nuits St Georges 1er Cru les Roncieres has a clean, quite pure bouquet with cranberry, bergamot and wild hedgerow aromas, developing rose petal/pressed flower scents with aeration. The palate is medium-bodied with supple tannin, a fine line of acidity, fleshy and rounded with a caressing, poised finish that keeps you coming back for another sip. It will benefit from another couple of years in bottle. The kind of wine that you will need to have a second bottle in reserve. Tasted September 2017." [Neal Martin, 31/10/2017]

Vinous 90

Bright dark red Pungent minerality energizes the aromas of musky dark cherry, raspberry and licorice A silky yet firm midweight with a slightly herbal quality to its rather primary, nicely delineated flavors More firmly tannic and less harmonious today than the village Vosne-Romanee, and harder to taste But this youthfully medicinal wine avoids coming off as hard [Stephen Tanzer, 03/01/2017]
