Meursault 1er Cru 'Poruzots' Thierry Pillot 2020: Crisp and Compelling

Emily Thomas — The finish is something else

7/10

Wine shop guy recommended this when I said I wanted something special for a dinner party. The smoky note at the end caught me off guard in the best way. Friends who know way more about wine than me were impressed, so that's a win.

Kofi Asante — Nice but not £175 nice

5/10

Got this as a birthday present and it's a solid Burgundy Chardonnay. Smooth, bit of nuttiness, decent acidity. But honestly I've had white Burgundies at half the price that I enjoyed just as much. Wouldn't buy it for myself.

Omar Diallo — Lovely but needs food

6/10

Tried this on its own first and thought it was a bit much — very creamy and almondy. Then had it with a chicken dish and it completely came alive. The acidity really cuts through richer food. Not an everyday wine obviously but I'd get it again for a special meal.
