Tasting notes
Firm reduction is all that can be discerned on the nose today. More interesting are the tension-filled and tautly muscular, if not super-dense, medium weight flavors that culminate in a firmly mineral-driven, moderately austere, linear and impressively persistent finale. As is virtually always the case, this serious effort will need extended cellaring to realize its full potential.*Burghound Sweet Spot Outstanding!*

The 2022 Meursault Les Porusots 1er Cru has a sophisticated bouquet with crushed limestone infusing citrus fruit mixed with yellow flowers and a little undergrowth. The palate is well-balanced with a fine bead of acidity. This feels harmonious, lovely, poised and pure, with hints of tropical fruit decorating yet not defining the finish. Superb.(CC)
More tensile than the Goutte d'Or, the 2022 Meursault 1er Cru Porusots exhibits notes of citrus oil, white flowers, crisp green apple and freshly baked bread, followed by a medium to full-bodied, satiny and tensile palate with good cut and persistence.
Cask sample. Mid lemon. Citrus, spice, apple. Richness on the palate with ripe apple, citrus and all dressed up with a dusting of allspice, driven on by juicy, crystalline acidity. (MH)
