Elevate your wine collection with this exceptional Meursault Poruzots Premier Cru Chardonnay 2020, crafted by renowned Burgundian producer Antoine Jobard. Hailing from one of Burgundy’s most celebrated white wine appellations, this bottle combines elegance and intensity for a drinking experience that rewards patience and appreciation of complexity.

Aged with Distinction: This white Burgundy boasts vibrant citrus notes—lemon zest and lime—intertwined with subtle smoky undertones and hints of acacia blossom on the nose. While its aromatics may appear reserved upon first pour, they awaken beautifully over time to reveal layers of agrume complexity and mineral depth. On the palate, it delivers a bold yet harmonious profile marked by crisp acidity and a textured mouthfeel that balances ripe fruit with a tannic spine for remarkable persistence.

Critical Acclaim:
– Vinous (93-95 Points): Celebrates its “zesty tension” and “lemon thyme-finished” character that lingers long after each sip.
– Jasper Morris (92-94 Points): Notes its “backward” nose contrasting with an open-knit palate of soft white fruit supported by refined grip on the close.
– Burghound (91-94 Points): Highlights its muscular structure and “outstanding length,” calling it a standout example of Meursault’s aging potential.

Why Choose This Wine? For collectors seeking aged Chardonnay with aging potential, this bottling offers exceptional value in its class. Its well-balanced acidity ensures it pairs seamlessly with rich dishes like buttery scallops or roasted poultry while developing further nuance over decades in your cellar. Unlike many Meursaults that prioritize immediate fruit-forward appeal, Poruzots distinguishes itself through its structured backbone and layered complexity—a hallmark of Antoine Jobard’s meticulous craftsmanship in Burgundy’s finest terroirs.

With 13.5% alcohol, this wine strikes a harmonious balance between power and finesse. A must-have for enthusiasts of Burgundy Premier Cru whites, its blend of precision and depth positions it as a benchmark for quality in this vintage.
