"The 2010 Roulot Poruzots is a lovely bottle in the making, but 2011 will be remembered as the vintage where this premier cru skyrocketed up in quality here with the addition of the new parcel of old vines. The bouquet is a deep and very elegant expression of its terroir, delivering scents of apple, pear, orange zest, almonds, a pretty base of soil, spring flowers and vanillin oak. On the palate the wine is deep, full-bodied and quite generous in its fruit composition on the attack, with some fashionably late-arriving minerality on the backend adding cut and grip on the long finish. Perhaps this more forward impression is just a stage the wine is going through and it will firm up a bit more with further bottle age, but right now, I have a very slight preference for the laser-like 2010 Tillets over the Poruzots chez Roulot."
