Meursault 1er Cru Le Porusot 2018 - Bouchard Père et Fils
Since the Cistercian era, exceptional white wines have been produced around the village of Meursault. Indeed, the appellation dates back to 1098, the year the Cîteaux abbey was founded. The monks had a few vines in this commune, which they quickly developed to their full potential, as in the case of the Le Porusot plot. Bouchard Père & Fils cultivates 44 ares of this appellation located between the Bouchères climate to the north and the Genevrières to the south.
