Tasting notes
More herbal than the Tillets but with a touch of lime blossom too. Crisp and zesty but without the intensity of the Tillets. (JH)

(just a single new oak barrel out of 13): Deeper-pitched and more brooding on the nose than the Tillets. Fat and thick on entry but surprising acidity gives it a distinctly austere, clenched quality. Finishes tactile, chewy and long, with a fresh lemony edge to its ripe stone fruit flavors. This youthfully disjointed wine will need longer to knit than the Tillets. Marion Javillier presented me with a sample representative of the ultimate blend but noted that the wine had not yet been assembled.
