Description

This vineyard of 0.63 hectare has a superb terroir of calcareous marl and limestone gravel. It is harvested very early to preserve its crisp and lively structure. It is located next to the famous “Les Genevrieres” vineyard, which gives it an exotic flair. New barrels are avoided to let its natural aromas shine.

This wine is a delight for the senses, with its buttery orchard fruit, almond and floral notes. The 2018 Meursault 1er Cru Les Porusots is medium to full-bodied, smooth and round, with a charming personality and juicy acidity. This is a friendly and expressive Porusots that one can enjoy young.

Domaine de Montille

Founded in the 1730s, and renamed Domaine de Montille in 1863. The estate was sitting on a real treasure. In total, around 20ha of magnificent terroirs, planted with Pinot Noir in the Côte de Beaune. Hubert de Montille and then his son, Etienne, the current owner of the estate, trusted in the wealth and diversity that the Burgundy wine mosaic represents and devoted their lives to it. Over the years, they reconstituted and extended the family heritage, plot by plot.

Burgundy

Burgundy, located in eastern France, is one of the world’s most renowned wine regions, celebrated for its exceptional Pinot Noir and Chardonnay. The region is divided into five main wine-producing areas: Chablis, Côte de Nuits, Côte de Beaune, Côte Chalonnaise, and Mâconnais. Burgundy’s complex terroir, characterised by diverse soils, microclimates, and slope orientations, plays a critical role in the distinctive characteristics of its wines. The region's classification system includes Grand Cru, Premier Cru, Village, and Regional appellations, reflecting the hierarchy of quality and location. Burgundy’s vineyards, many with centuries-old histories, produce wines that are revered for their elegance, depth, and expression of terroir. Key towns include Beaune, the region’s wine capital, and Dijon, known for its historical ties to the Dukes of Burgundy. Burgundy’s rich winemaking heritage, combined with its diverse range of wines, makes it a top destination for wine enthusiasts worldwide.
