Antoine Jobard took over the 5 hectare estate from his father 12 years ago and still today produces a mere 2,000 cases a year. He has developed a more mineral driven, citrusy style, illustrated in this superb Meursault. It comes from Sous la Velle, Les Chaumes de Narvaux and Corbins vineyards, the grapes of which bring a lovely balance of ripe fruit along with that mineral cut. The Jobard wines tend to be light on oak, with lees ageing, but no stirring, again to retain the citrus tension. This Meursault has a lean, mineral edge, with great complexity and elegance that will age magnificently. For drinking now, open early, decant, then serve in large bowled glasses. Classic partners include bourride (fish stew) with aioli and sole meunière.
