"The 2013 Roulot Tillets, as is typical of this lieu à dit, is a bit more elegant out of the blocks than the Luchets, but every bit as fine this year. The refined bouquet offers up scents of apple, lime blossoms, almonds, incipient notes of pastry cream, chalky soil tones and a nice base of vanillin oak. On the palate the wine is full-bodied, tight and young, with a fine core, bright acids and excellent focus and grip on the long, racy finish. This sense of reserve out of the blocks is pretty rare in 2013 and augurs very well for the future development of this lovely Tillets."

The world's most influential fine-wine producer and the benchmark for Bordeaux, Burgundy, Champagne and the Rhone. Its appellation (AOC) system codifies geography, grape and method, and its wines set the global standard for age-worthiness and terroir expression.
Produces the world's most revered Pinot Noir and Chardonnay from a mosaic of tiny, terroir-defined climats. Its hierarchy of village, Premier Cru and Grand Cru vineyards makes site the ultimate expression of quality.
The Cote de Beaune's largest white-wine village, known for rich, nutty, buttery Chardonnay of generous texture.
2013 in Burgundy was a difficult, cool and hail-hit year with a late harvest and small crop; the wines are fresh, lean and classically styled, with bright acidity and firm structure, especially the reds.
The world's most versatile white grape, producing everything from steely Chablis to rich, oaked whites. Its neutrality makes it a mirror of terroir and winemaking, and the foundation of white Burgundy and Champagne.
