Tasting Notes

WA92

The 2009 Meursault Poruzots comes across as quite inward and cool in its persistent minerality. The Poruzots is texturally beautiful, but it isn’t an immediate 2009, rather it is a wine that needs at least a few more years in bottle. There is no shortage of finesse here. I am very interested in seeing the direction this wine takes over the next few years. It is a fascinating effort. Anticipated maturity: 2014+. This is a fabulous set of wines from Antoine Jobard. The wines are distinguished for their sheer elegance and classiness. The harvest began on September 9. Jobard aged the wines in 15-20% new oak. The wines were bottled in April, with a light filtration on the last 10-15 liters of each barrel.

V90

Pale bright yellow. Very hermetic, discreet nose hints at honey. Broad and powerful but a bit youthfully aggressive, with a slight alcoholic warmth to the rich honey and orange flavors. Quite subdued today, with its fruit in the deep background. Hold this for at least a few years.
