Bouchard Meursault 1er cru Les Porusots 2020

92-94 points Jasper Morris, MW (Inside Burgundy): "Full yellow colour, with a light reduction that will soon disappear. Plumper than the Bouchères yet kept in balance by just the right acidity. I enjoy the way this opens out on the second half of the palate, a longer finish than Bouchères. Structure is the order oof the day! (Nov 2021)"

91-93+ points William Kelley (Wine Advocate): "The 2020 Meursault 1er Cru Le Porusot exhibits aromas of citrus zest, grapefruit, freshly baked bread, white flowers, pear and fresh pastry. Medium to full-bodied, satiny and chiseled, with a tangy spine of acidity and a long, penetrating finish, it's a notably focused rendition of this frequently demonstrative premier cru. (Jan 2022)"

90-93 points/'Outstanding,' Allen Meadows (Burghound): "This is sufficiently reduced to blur the nuances of what appear to be ripe aromas. The dense, powerful and serious larger-scaled flavors possess plenty of sappy dry extract which helps to buffer both the very firm acid spine as well as a touch of tannin on the bitter lemon, austere and built-to-age finale. This is very Poruzots in character and should age accordingly. Drink: 2030+. (Jun 2022)" Bill Nanson (Burgundy Report): "(Vines here that touch the previous Bouchères). A more vibrant and almost gelée citrus fruit – modestly reductive. Here there’s a little gas. More structural – it’s Porusots! Great clarity and mobility to this flavour. Truly excellent – maybe better than that – the finish with a subtle extra salinity too. (Dec 2021)"
