2022 Domaine Dugat-Py Meursault 1er Cru Les Porusot

The 2022 Domaine Dugat-Py Meursault 1er Cru Les Porusot is a remarkable Chardonnay from one of Meursault's most highly regarded Premier Cru vineyards in Burgundy's Côte de Beaune. Crafted by Domaine Bernard Dugat-Py, this wine reflects the stony limestone soils of Les Porusot, offering impressive concentration alongside the precision and mineral freshness that define the appellation. The nose reveals aromas of lemon zest, ripe pear and white peach, layered with toasted hazelnut, acacia blossom and subtle flinty notes.

On the palate, it is full-bodied yet beautifully poised, with vibrant acidity supporting flavours of citrus, orchard fruit and roasted almond. Careful oak maturation adds gentle vanilla and creamy texture without overshadowing the vineyard character. A fine mineral backbone carries through to a long, elegant finish with exceptional depth and persistence.

Ben's Recommendation:
At Wine More Cellars, this is an outstanding Premier Cru White Burgundy for collectors and lovers of world-class Chardonnay. Enjoy with butter-poached lobster, grilled turbot, roast chicken with morels or mature Comté cheese. While approachable with careful decanting, it will reward cellaring through 2032–2042, developing additional richness and complexity
