This wine is from the Tillets plots at the top of the hill, above the Bouchères at 340m high.
The total surface area is 0.18 hectares. The vines are on average 5 years old.
The grape variety is 100% Chardonnay. Annual production: around 1200 bottles.
The vines are grown in uncertified organic farming.
The subsoil is made up of platelet rocks.
This wine can be served with hot shellfish, fish or white meat, butter sauce or cream preferably (chicken with cream and morels, scallops, hot oysters, etc …).
The palate highlights Comice pear, dried fruits and citrus fruits, candied orange, bitter orange. The finish is wonderfully concentrated, lengthy, lasting a lifetime.
A Meursault should ideally be tasted at 5 to 10 years old
Tasting
Raphael GIMENEZ-FAUVETY ‘s tasting notes – Retailer ; “De Corps et d’Esprit” in Paris
A rarity for this demonstration of the Tillets plot, whose ethereal side, poetic, even mysterious, aromatics, to wholly justify this choice on the part of the winemaker. Refined nose, as subtle as it is elegant, dried fruits, pine nuts, hazelnuts and peanuts, icing sugar, flowers, violets and white flowers, peppery grapes, a subtle and aromatic complexity that push these Tillets closer to a Genevrières. Comice pear on the palate, with dried fruit and citrus, orange fruit paste, bitter orange, a perfectly full-bodied and lengthy finish, lasting an eternity.
