Jasper Morris: 91-94 Points
Medium crimson ruby in colour. A very fine perfumed nose with a blacker note on top of the red fruit the touch of garrigue for which Roncières is noted a saline touch also behind the red fruit with some orange zest. An interesting complex wine with good length.
Burghound: 90-93 Points
Firm reduction dominates the fruit today. More interesting are the super-sleek and beautifully defined medium weight flavors that deliver even better length on the mildly austere and decidedly firm finale. Here too better depth would be desirable but the potential aging curve is such that more will develop in time. (Drink starting 2034)
Vinous: 91-93 Points
The 2022 Nuits Saint-Georges Roncière 1er Cru (one of Etienne Grivot's favorites from this appellation) showed a little reduction on the nose. However it is nicely detailed: more black than red fruit with pressed violets gradually emerging lending it a Vosne-like allure. The palate is medium-bodied with fine tannins and good backbone. It becomes peppery towards the second half with a lilting nonchalance on the finish. It doesn't want to grab the limelight; this is a discrete and very pleasurable Roncières in the making. (Drink between 2027-2047)
