Meursault

Tillets

It's a vineyard bounded by limes.

The 2020 vintage is a unique vintage. It is marked by historic precocity from budburst, with an advance of 3 weeks, until the harvest which took place entirely in the month of August. High temperatures associated with a lack of precipitation cause a significant water deficit as well as evapotranspiration phenomena in July and August. The absence of rain, on the other hand, allows the health of the grapes to be very satisfactory. The particular conditions of this vintage generate wonderful balances.

Vineyard

Next to Narvaux and Les Clous, the terroir of Tillets covers old quarries. In the marly area of Meursault, the wine produced is more similar to the style of Puligny. The wine structure is elegant, floral and a little angular.
