2022 Meursault 1er Cru Porusots, Comtes Lafon

2022 Meursault 1er Cru Porusots, Comtes Lafon

Cellar Circle Exclusive

The domaine only bought this parcel in 2011, and it still feels like a newcomer on their list, even though it’s been a decade of releases already. The clay soils of the vineyard make a wonderfully rich wine that never shows any heaviness. It is crystalline with great presence.

Tasting notes

I like the nose here, it has tension but somehow playful. There is enough genuine weight of fruit to fill out the bone structure of Porusots. Excellent intensity while the fruit retains a vivid freshness, with plenty of acidity. This has the structure to grow into an impressive wine. Drink from 2029-2037. Tasted Oct 2023.
