Meursault Porusots 1cru 2011 Domaines des Comtes Lafon

Avis professionnels

Robert Parker (90)

The 2011 Meursault 1er Cru Porusots (and Dominique is adamant it is with an “s”) comes from 50-year-old vines courtesy of .96-hectares from Domaine Manuel shared with Jean-Marc Roulot. It was bottled later than the Bouchere. It has a vibrant, more animated bouquet than the Bouchere: citrus driven with lime zest and orange blossom aromas. The palate is smooth and silky on the entry: no rough edges here with delicate touches of dried apricot and quince that build to a satisfying, sumptuous honeyed finish that exudes depth and puissance. Superb.
