The Wine
Antoine Jobard took over the five-hectare Meursault estate from his father in 2007 and still today produces a mere 2,000 cases a year. Antoine has developed a more mineral-driven, citrusy style, illustrated in this superb Bourgogne Blanc, with its lightly toasty edge thanks to a gentle touch of oak. This fine white in 2020 includes a parcel from Saint-Aubin 1er Cru Derrière Chez Edouard. This lends even greater depth, while full 'malo' fermentation brings creamy notes and a year in seasoned oak barrels adds light toasted spice tones. It makes beautiful drinking now - elegant, poised and crisp. Open early, then serve in large-bowled glasses to enjoy the full experience. A classic with bourride (fish stew), sole meunière or creamy risotto.
