Aromas of pear, crisp green apple, bread dough, wheat toast and white flowers introduce the 2019 Meursault Les Tillets, a medium to full-bodied, satiny and concentrated wine built around a tangy spine of acidity. Concluding with a saline finish, it has the structure and substance to age.

Bright and precise, Jobard's 2018 Meursault Les Tillets exhibits aromas of citrus oil, white flowers, beeswax and fresh bread. Medium-bodied, elegantly textural and dynamic, it's a pretty, mineral wine from this higher-altitude, hillside site.

The 2017 Meursault Les Tillets is also showing very well, offering up aromas of Anjou pear, Meyer lemon, fresh pastry, oatmeal and iodine, followed by a medium to full-bodied, satiny and precise palate that marries a delicately sun-kissed core of fruit with racy acids and chalky dry extract. This is well worth seeking out.

The 2016 Meursault Les Tillets, which lost 40% of its crops due to the frost that was apparently severe toward the treeline, has another crisp and focused bouquet, with a subtle marine influence of cockles shells and oyster neatly complementing the citrus fruit. Again, I like the delineation here. The palate is medium-bodied with crisp acidity, spicier than I was anticipating with hints of stem ginger and even curry leaf toward the finish. What a very fine Meursault Les Tillets from Antoine Jobard this year.

The 2015 Meursault Les Tillets has a pretty bouquet with lifted scents of honeysuckle and jasmine, although it is not quite as detailed as the 2014. The palate is fresh and vibrant with crisp acidity, a pleasant salinity on the mouth and plenty of hazelnut towards the lively finish. I like the personality conveyed by this Meursault and it should age with style.
