Wine Description:
Francois et Antoine Jobard Meursault Charmes 1er Cru is a highly sought-after wine that showcases the expertise of the Jobard family. This premier cru comes from the Meursault appellation in Burgundy, known for producing exceptional Chardonnay wines. The vineyard features limestone-rich soils, which impart a distinct minerality to the wine. The winemaking process involves careful hand-harvesting and gentle pressing, followed by fermentation in oak barrels. The resulting wine is elegant and complex, with aromas of ripe citrus, white flowers, and toasted hazelnuts. It offers a rich and creamy texture, balanced by vibrant acidity, and a long, lingering finish. This Meursault Charmes 1er Cru is a true expression of the terroir and a testament to the Jobard family's winemaking prowess. More recent vintages of this wine will be labeled as Antoine Jobard only after Antoine assumed full responsability for the estate from his father.
