What is this wine?
Domaine des Comtes Lafon is one of Burgundy’s most revered estates, producing benchmark white wines from Meursault, Montrachet, and Volnay. Porusots is a Premier Cru vineyard in the heart of Meursault, known for producing some of the village’s richest, most structured whites. The 2022 vintage was generous and ripe, yet balanced by freshness—an excellent year for showcasing the power and precision of Lafon’s style.

Why get this wine?
Comtes Lafon’s wines are among the most sought-after in Burgundy, and Porusots offers one of the domaine’s deepest, most ageworthy expressions of Meursault. In 2022, the wine combines ripe fruit intensity with the estate’s hallmark precision, making it a serious cellar candidate. Highly allocated and rarely available, this is a must-have for collectors and lovers of great white Burgundy.

What does this wine taste like?
Full-bodied and concentrated, with layers of ripe pear, stone fruit, and citrus zest. Accents of hazelnut, spice, and toasty oak are underpinned by a firm mineral core and vibrant acidity. Powerful, structured, and long on the finish.

When should you drink this wine?
Best with rich seafood, lobster, or poultry in creamy sauces. While approachable after a few years, it will evolve beautifully for 10–15+ years, gaining complexity and depth.

Professional Reviews

Burghound

BH 94

"Firm reduction is all that can be discerned on the nose today. More interesting are the tension-filled and tautly muscular, if not super-dense, medium weight flavors that culminate in a firmly mineral-driven, moderately austere, linear and impressively persistent finale. As is virtually always the case, this serious effort will need extended cellaring to realize its full potential." -Allen Meadows

Antonio Galloni

AG 95

"The 2022 Meursault Les Porusots 1er Cru has a sophisticated bouquet with crushed limestone infusing citrus fruit mixed with yellow flowers and a little undergrowth. The palate is well-balanced with a fine bead of acidity. This feels harmonious, lovely, poised and pure, with hints of tropical fruit decorating yet not defining the finish. Superb." -Neal Martin

Robert Parker

RP 93

"More tensile than the Goutte d'Or, the 2022 Meursault 1er Cru Porusots exhibits notes of citrus oil, white flowers, crisp green apple and freshly baked bread, followed by a medium to full-bodied, satiny and tensile palate with good cut and persistence." -William Kelley

Jancis Robinson

JR 17

"Cask sample. Mid lemon. Citrus, spice, apple. Richness on the palate with ripe apple, citrus and all dressed up with a dusting of allspice, driven on by juicy, crystalline acidity."

Decanter

D 94

"The 2022 Porusots seemed oddly fresher and more substantial when tasted from cask. The aromas spanned citrus, apple, and peach; the texture was dense and luxurious yet enlivened by crisp acidity. The particular structure of the wine must be due to both the clay in the soil and the slight turn to the northeast of this lieu-dit. Lafon farms nearly a hectare in metayage from René Manuel, which makes him the largest proprietor here." -Charles Curtis MW
