2014 Meursault Les Tillets

Magnum. Deep green-gold. Very ‘serious’ nose. Much denser than the Maranges and St-Aubins I have just been tasting. Marked acidity and no shortage of fine, ripe fruit. This is clearly still very youthful, presumably accentuated in this magnum. Great structure and persistence. (JR)

Bright, pale yellow. Subdued but pure aromas of grapefruit pith and soft citrus fruits. Shows a sappy sweetness and a sexy leesy nuance to its flavors of lemon zest, black pepper and sea breeze. Lovely intensity here, not to mention nice breadth and length and no hardness. In a rather cool style but this wine should nonetheless give considerable early pleasure.

Smoke and almonds on the nose. Great edge and nerve with a green streak. Exciting! And not that expensive. Finishes just a little suddenly. GV ? (JR)
