Domaine Belleville Les Parcellaires de Saulx Les Poruzots Meursault 1er Cru 2017

Meursault has no grands crus, but Poruzots/Porusots (meaning ‘stony place’, reflective of the soils) is at the higher end of premier cru quality. This is extremely young and closed, with clear citrus tang, more than in any other white in the lineup. There’s great length and persistency, and a mouthwatering finish. This is going nowhere fast and is easy to recommend. It shows that same smoky liquorice edge that the best reds of the lineup have also displayed. One to savour. 50% new oak. Drinking window: 2019-2034. Score – 95. (Jane Anson, decanter.com, May 22, 2019)
