Meursault Porusots 1er Cru Cuvée Jéhan Humblot
Hospices de Beaune 2020
PRIMEUR
A legendary plot and wine. Generous and intense in a high-level vintage. Superlative wine!
Tasting notes
Beautiful and shiny yellow robe. A yummy nose with a lot of amplitude: apple, pear and quince aromas. The great mouth density still preserves the underlying minerality of this outstanding Porusots terroirs. Just splendid!
Wine & food pairings - cellaring potential
The generosity and intensity of this wine will match food in the same vein: grilled seafood, mushroom creamy soup, poultry with truffles.
