The 2014 Nuits St Georges 1er Cru les Roncières comes from a hectare of 52-year-old vines planted on limestone-rich soils. It has a comparatively ripe bouquet with "fleshy" red cherries, tinned apricot and crushed strawberry fruit; it is more forward than the Bousselots, but maybe without the same degree of accuracy. The palate is tighter than the nose suggests, nicely structured with very pure strawberry and red cherry fruit; there is a mineral vein coming through on the elegant, poised finish. If the nose improves by the time of bottling, then this will be a lovely Roncières.
