Tasting notes
The 2014 Meursault Les Tillets has that wonderful mineral bite on the nose: cold granite, sea cave and with just a cheeky hint of praline in the background. The palate is very well balanced, with a piercing thread of acidity that fans out with hints of dried honey. Orange peel, mandarin and dried quince are on the long finish. This is one of the finest wines that Jean-Marc Roulot has produced from this vineyard. Tasted February 2017.

Bright, light lemon-yellow color. Reticent but pure aromas of white peach and citrus zest. Fat and sweet but with powerful acidity giving the middle palate a penetrating quality. Finishes with a very brisk lemony note that struck me as a bit raw; in any event, this will require cellaring. Roulot told me he could have picked this fruit a day earlier but I find no late-harvested character.
