Domaine Antoine Jobard Description
This is as classy and as consistent a property as you’ll find in Burgundy, and theirs are generally counted among the best Meursaults. Other respected vignerons like Coche and Raveneau hold these wines in the highest esteem and are generous with their praise when Jobard comes up in conversation.
All the Jobard wines are aged in barrel and spend a lengthy period of time sur lie in their cellars in Meursault. They are the last of our white Burgundies to come to the market every year due to their unhurried approach to vinification and typically slow malolactic fermentations. In their youth, these wines are often tightly wound with an intense mineral structure that only begins to soften with extended bottle aging. Though François and Antoine work side by side, Antoine has brought his own signature to the domaine: a more sensuous approachability to the wines, all delicious and ready to drink immediately. That said, the Jobard legacy lives on, and the wines will still explode with intense aromas of honeycomb and stone later in life. If you just can’t wait, there’s no reason not to uncork.
The Pommard is sourced from a blend of several village level Lieu Dit: La Rue au Port, Les Combes and Petits Noizons (comprises about 75% of the blend)
Burghound: 90 Points
A highly perfumed and elegant nose is comprised by notes of spicy red currant, plum and more discreet earth influence. The succulent but punchy medium weight flavors exude a refreshing bead of salinity on the balanced, complex, long and only slightly austere finale. This is a terrific Pommard villages and recommended.
