The reserved nose reveals white fruit, pear, white flowers, toasted hazelnut and subtle beeswax, while the focused palate delivers bright citrus, penetrating minerality and a beautifully chiselled structure. Youthful and racily fresh, it finishes long and slightly firm, with excellent potential for further development in bottle.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"text-decoration: underline; background-color: #ffffff;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eJames Suckling | \u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(151, 7, 0); text-decoration: underline;\"\u003eJS 94-95\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cem\u003ePublished: Jun 30, 2023\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eIn spite of some floral notes on the nose, this has a lot of citrusy power on the focused and energetic palate.

After the Bouchères, the Porusots has a more reserved and chiselled nose. There is a clear dominance of white fruit, with a little bacon fat behind, a limestone reduction, then significant energy at the back of the palate. Drink from 2030-2036. Tasted Oct 2023.

Technical director Frédéric Weber reported little in the way of hydric stress, with rapid ripening at the end of the season that saw some parcels accumulate 1.5% potential alcohol in as little as three days. Fortunately, the team hadn't performed any deleafing and were able to apply protective kaolin clay as sunblock for the leaves and fruit to ride out the heat wave. Harvest began on August 26, with anything picked after 11 a.m. left overnight in a cold room for processing the following day, and the harvesters stopping work at 2 p.m.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eAs I've written before, viticulture chez Bouchard is among the best of the big houses (I drive past their Beaune vineyards several hundred times every year). Organic conversion is underway, and canopies are now hedged to 1.30 meters, around 30 centimeters higher than the classic low rognage that still predominates along the Côte—forward-thinking innovations that will no doubt find imitators in short order among other big players. Vinifications in red increasingly incorporate whole bunches, and whites are barreled down before the end of alcoholic fermentation, with foudres now employed for the second winter of élevage for some cuvées.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Sale","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":41337267552320,"sku":"WHFR20220110","price":185.0,"currency_code":"SGD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0564\/7728\/6464\/files\/bouchard-pere-fils-meursault-le-porusot-premier-cru-750ml.jpg?v=1786946908","url":"https:\/\/www.1855thebottleshop.com\/products\/bouchard-pere-fils-meursault-le-porusot-premier-cru-2022-750ml","provider":"1855 The Bottle Shop Pte Ltd","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
