Tasting notes
The 2021 Meursault Les Porusots 1er Cru has one of the finest aromatics from Roulot in this vintage: shimmering flint, green apple, petrichor and orange pith scents with laser-like focus. The palate is very well-balanced, fresh and vibrant, with impressive tension, but perhaps the season precluded the weight and density on the finish to complete this wine. Yet, it is still a great Meursault.

Aromas of citrus oil, white flowers, freshly baked bread and vanilla pod preface the 2021 Meursault 1er Cru Porusot, a medium-bodied, fleshy and enveloping wine with a satiny attack, racy acids and a fine-boned, charming profile.
Two parcels, one of 28 ares (Le Porusot-Dessus), the other 18 ares (Le Porusot), for a total of 0.36 ha (0.89 acre). Tank sample. Mid-pale lemon. Concentrated richness, and the spice and complexity of Porusot. Despite the evident concentration, and spicy exuberance, this remains light and floral, especially in comparison with the apparent power chez Lafon. (MH)
