93-94 points/'Very Fine,' Steen Öhman (Winehog): "The Meursault Porusot is showing very well indeed, as this was only touched very little by the April frost. It’s a effortless and elegant Meursault 1er cru in the making – and while it’s matched by Tesson concentration wise, I do prefer the Poruzot (for a change) due to the fine energy and effortless balance. Drink from 2026. (3/14/18)"

90-93 points/'Outstanding,' Allen Meadows (Burghound): "Firm reduction masks the fruit at present. Otherwise there is a decidedly different mouth feel to the markedly more powerful and muscular flavors that possess excellent mid-palate density before concluding in a citrusy and austere finish that displays excellent depth and sneaky good length. This isn't particularly refined, indeed it flirts with rusticity, but I like the frank and bold delivery. Drink: 2024+. (Jun 2018)"

92+ points John Gilman (View From the Cellar): "The 2015 Poruzots is very, very elegant this year chez Roulot. The wine comes in at 13.5 percent octane, but also has very low pH and is one of the most tensile wines in the cellar, despite it also being one of the riper. The bouquet is a very classy mélange of apple, pear, hazelnut, lovely minerality, orange peel, white lilies and vanillin oak. On the palate the wine is pure, full-bodied, focused and shows off lovely mid-palate depth, with fine focus and grip, impeccable balance and a long, zesty and impressively racy finish. Fine, fine juice. 2019-2040. (Nov/Dec 2016)"

92 points Jasper Morris, MW (Inside Burgundy): "The domaine has two holdings, one in Le Porusot which has been grubbed up for replanting, the other in Les Porusots dessous which suffered from the frost. Pale yellow, a bit clumsy after the frost. There is density and some tension, but this is less graceful."
