Kermit Lynch's inaugural import in the 1970s, François Jobard's Burgundy domaine, now led by son Antoine, remains an epitome of class and consistency. Revered in Burgundy, their Meursaults, especially the Bourgogne Blanc, rank among the finest. Esteemed vignerons like Coche and Raveneau praise Jobard wines. Notable selections include the value-packed Meursault En la Barre, premier cru Meursaults like Poruzots, Blagny, Genevrières, Charmes, and the recently added Tillets. Their Puligny-Montrachet Le Trézin, sourced from a steep hillside, reflects textbook Puligny precision. Jobard's patient vinification yields tightly wound, mineral-rich young wines that evolve into aromatic marvels with age.

On the nose, you can expect aromas of ripe red berries, such as cherries and raspberries, along with subtle floral notes. There is also a hint of earthiness, which adds complexity to the wine.
The palate is well-balanced, with a medium body and silky tannins. The flavors of red fruits continue on the palate, accompanied by a touch of spice and a gentle acidity. The finish is long and satisfying, leaving a lingering impression of red fruit and a subtle mineral undertone.
