Goedhuis, November 2018
Like many of the Grivot Nuits, this has strong echoes of Vosne about it. Indeed, it is one of the prettiest wines in the cellar this year. Its silky red fruit and supple creamy texture give it captivating appeal, and it is easy to imagine this will drink well from early on. Its poised, taut structure will keep it going for the long term, too.

Neal Martin, September 2021, Score: 92
The 2017 Nuits Saint-Georges Roncière 1er Cru has a slightly stemmy, well-defined bouquet featuring brambly red fruit and balsamic, though it needs a little more cohesion. Charming, though. The lithe palate is well balanced with supple tannins and pure strawberry, cranberry and white pepper notes toward the finish. Nice sustain; gentle and quite alluring. Tasted blind at the Burgfest 2017 tasting. Drink 2022 - 2040

Neal Martin, January 2019, Score: 91-93
The 2017 Nuit Saint-Georges Roncière 1er Cru (Grivot uses the singular and not the plural Roncières) is pure and charming on the nose of raspberry preserve, briar, brown spices and a touch of pencil box. The palate is medium-bodied with supple tannin and a fine bead of acidity, tightening up toward the second half and leading to a saline, quite penetrating finish. Good potential here, but afford it four or five years in bottle. 2021 - 2040

Burghound, January 2019, Score: 90-93
Moderately generous oak and menthol influence is present on the attractively fresh nose of dark raspberry, sauvage and earth scents. There is good muscle and excellent punch to the lightly mineral-inflected medium-bodied flavors that possess focused power on the tightly wound and overtly saline finish where the wood influence reflected by the nose reappears. This well-made effort is also sufficiently structured to require patience. Drink 2029+

Decanter, December 2018, Score: 93
Back to a normal crop in 2017 after a 50% hit in 2016, this is made in a Vosne-like style by the Grivots, even though the grapes come from the southern side of Nuits-St-Georges. Poised, supple and almost good to drink from the barrel, it has juicy, lip-smacking fruit, stylish 30% new wood and balancing acidity. Drinking Window 2022 - 2027
Region
Nuits Saint Georges
The second largest town after Beaune, Nuits St. Georges is known for ample wines that have textured tannins and rich fruit. Unlike other famous Côte de Nuits villages, it has no Grand Crus but does have a handful of exceptional premier cru vineyards such as Clos de l'Arlot, Les Pruliers and AuxMurgers. Its wines can be occasionally rustic, and this sets them apart from many of the more northern appellations as well as from the neighbouring Côte de Beaune whose wines (apart from Pommard) tend to be less structured and more fruit forward. This is no doubt due to a slightly increased presence of clay especially on the Primeaux-Prissey area of the appellation. Notable producers include Domaine de l'Arlot, Jean Grivot and Meo-Camuzet.
