2022 Antoine Jobard Meursault: Textbook White Burgundy
Classy, mineral, and remarkably ageworthy - this is textbook Meursault from one of the region’s most respected domaines.
Antoine Jobard’s name belongs in the same breath as Burgundy legends like Coche-Dury and Roulot, and not just among collectors. Even fellow winemakers revere the Jobard style: structured, pure, and precise with a long, stony finish that unfolds beautifully over time.
The 2022 Meursault release showcases Antoine’s increasingly nuanced touch. A blend of top lieu-dits including Les Chaumes de Narvaux, Sous La Velle, En La Barre, Tillets, and more, this wine brings serious pedigree to the village-level bottling. Aged for nearly two years in neutral oak, the wine is deeply mineral, with Meursault’s hallmark balance of richness and tension, without ever being overblown.
Why This Wine Belongs in Your Cellar (or Glass Tonight)
-
Among Meursault’s Finest Producers: The Jobard family estate is considered one of the most consistent and admired producers in all of Burgundy.
-
Old-School Winemaking, Unhurried Aging: The wines spend 20–23 months sur lie in barrel and undergo slow, natural fermentations - making them some of the last white Burgundies to reach the market each year.
-
Minimal Intervention, Maximum Character: No batonnage, minimal settling, and only 20% new oak let the terroir shine through with clarity and intensity.
-
Drink or Hold: While tightly wound in their youth, 2022 is already showing flashes of brilliance and will gain richness, honeycomb notes, and layered minerality with age.
-
Collector-Approved: This is the kind of bottle that’s rarely seen on shelves and sells out quickly when it does appear.
Whether you're a longtime white Burgundy collector or looking to level up your Meursault game, the 2022 Jobard Meursault delivers the goods: pedigree, poise, and potential.
