"Similar lemon yellow colour. The nose is a bit more powerful than the white Beaune, though lacks much detail as yet. There is good weight and a juicy style of fruit on the palate, a little citrus note, quite perfumed, and the usual autosuggestion of limes I cannot help but find in Les Tillets."

“Another success is the 2020 Meursault Les Tillets, a medium to full-bodied, layered and incisive wine evocative of crisp green orchard fruit, pastry cream, white flowers and fresh almonds. Taut and chalky, it derives from terraced vines below the tree line, which will be instantly recognizable to anyone who has taken a walk in this climat.”

“The 2020 Meursault Les Tillets was picked on 3 September, one of the last whites picked by the Domaine, as the plot is located up the hill in a cool microclimate. It is quite reserved on the nose, well-defined, fresh and stony, touches of mint emerging with time. The palate is taut and fresh with a fine line of acidity, the oak nicely intergrated, hints of almond and white chocolate towards the finish. Give this two or three years in bottle to settle down”

“There is a whiff of secondary fermentation on the otherwise ripe aromas of poached pear, green apple and acacia blossom. The racy and impressively intense flavors exude evident minerality on the chiseled, bone-dry and bone-dry finale. This refined effort is decidedly compact and quite tightly wound so at least a few years of patience should be beneficial. Worth checking out.”
