Light to medium yellow color. Smoke, vanilla, and yellow fruit bouquet. Curiously, The wine seems a little backward despite its 8 years of age. Crisp acidity and oaky on the mid-palate and aftertaste, one gets a hint of muscadine along with a rich mouthfeel. Should hold and improve another 2 years at least.

Vin très tranchant, agréable en ouverture. Cependant , il manque de complexité sur la longueur. On dénote : citron, ciboulette, nectarine non murie, amande Côté floral non-identifié. Manque de longueur. Année difficile

Served a little warmer than ideal. This started off with a waxy nose with hints of lemon rind. With air the nose became more complex, showing more honey and vanilla notes, which carried through to the palate. A bit short on acid, for my tastes. 91-92

Luis Does Tilia (Tilia, Mpls): Light gold color. Drank a glass over 90 minutes. This is quite good; lovely nose with sea air and beeswax, lemon-lime, slate on the nose. The palate shows some breadth, deeper with little richness, sea shells, lemon and lime, peach hints, slate, with really great,tingly minerality on the back end. Nicely done.

Back at TIlia with Luis' group: Fairly classic Meusault profile with rich golden fruit, peach, flowers and balancing acidity.
