2020 Armand Heitz Meursault 1er Cru Les Poruzots is a beautifully balanced Premier Cru Chardonnay that sits stylistically between the richness of classic Meursault and the precision of higher, more mineral sites. The nose is expressive and layered, showing ripe citrus, white peach and pear, alongside hazelnut, light brioche and subtle flinty notes. Compared to more powerful sites like Perrières, Poruzots shows a slightly more open and generous aromatic profile.
Ben’s Recommendation:
At Wine More Cellars, this is exactly the kind of wine we position as a "classic Meursault Premier Cru style" - combining richness, texture and balance. Compared to Perrières (more structured) or Blagny (more linear), Poruzots is more generous, approachable and complete, making it easier to enjoy earlier. This is a great recommendation for customers who love Meursault’s creamy, nutty style, especially those looking for something premium but not too tight or austere. Perfect with lobster, roast chicken or creamy dishes, and will drink beautifully now or over the next 10–15 years.
