Meursault "Les Tillets" 2007, Patrick Javillier

This "Tillets" captures the essence of the 2007 vintage: light-coloured, fresh, nervous, citrus-dominated with refreshing minerality on the palate and a dry mineral finish that triggers images of Dorset's jurassic coast and crushed oyster shells. I doubt the 2007s will fatten up as much as the delicious 2006s. This will be an elegant vintage to be imbibed whilst listening to Handel and eating monkfish, halibut or Dover sole.
