| * **Meursault–Charmes** (Oct. 2022 – ): 3 btls not oxidized. 13% ABV. Lovely nose of orchard fruits & citrus blossom. Quite delicious, with much better balance on the palate than the 2011 Porusots. From a lot of 6 purchased in May 2016 from the auction platform of a reputable West Coast retailer. [Rayner Cheung] | * **Meursault–Charmes** (Oct. 2022 – ): 3 btls not oxidized. 13% ABV.

| - | * **Meursault–Porusots** (Sep. 2022 – ): 4 btls not oxidized. 13% ABV. Best decanted, as this is made – running scared of premox – in the modern, rigidly reductive style of white Burgundy. That said, the citrus, floral, & mineral components fit together perfectly well, making for an enjoyable wine. What's missing are the grace & multidimensionality of Lafon's Meursaults from an earlier era that ended just a few vintages ago (e.g., orange blossom, orchard fruit, & just a little hedonism for chrissakes).
