Proper single vineyard Meursault. The lieu-dit of Les Tillets, with a total surface area of just over 11 hectares, was planted in 1962 and faces south-east at an altitude of between 320 and 340m. The soil is a mix of limestone and gravel. Les Tillets is an old word for lime tree, very common in this region and, in the middle ages, frequently used for medicinal purposes.
Les Tillets is a lieu-dit in this most famous of white Burgundy villages. The wine is elegant and mineral with great textural intensity, a broad creamy palate with savoury butter and toasty notes balanced by a racy and vivacious finish. Still young, this lovely wine has the characteristic delicate touch of Berthelemot.
