Note di degustazione
The 2015 Meursault Porusots 1er Cru is a wine that I remember as perplexing in barrel, and that is borne out in bottle. The powerful, rather heavy-handed bouquet has perhaps too much new oak vis-à-vis the fruit, and there are strong tropical scents here that are almost overwhelming. The palate is reduced on the entry and as a consequence it is masking the terroir expression and denuding it of precision. That’s a shame, because there is a decent Meursault in there... somewhere. Tasted blind at the annual Burgfest tasting. (DIAM 30 closure)

Tasted blind, the 2015 Meursault 1er Cru Porusots reveals an attractive bouquet of green orchard fruit, white flowers and hazelnut cream. On the palate, it's medium to full-bodied, with a satiny attack, chewy extract and tangy balancing acids. It's a definite success.
(on its finings, with a higher level of CO2 due to the fact that its malolactic fermentation finished very late, in tank): A note of musky reduction to the cooler aromas of nectarine, crushed stone and hazelnut. Then surprisingly silky and suave but tight and high-pitched in the mouth, with its stone fruit flavors conveying a distinctly dry impression and solid underlying structure. This sexy but backward wine will benefit from some aeration at the bottling and has the structure to age. This was actually the last premier cru vineyard picked in 2016 because the fruit here ripens later. The vibrant, tongue-dusting finish shows a lightly saline quality.
