2024 Antoine Jobard Meursault

The 2024 Meursault Village is a blend of the usual seven parcels. It is understated on the nose with touches of white chalk and wet pavement, a little Puligny-like in style. The palate is well balanced with a keen line of acidity, pleasing brightness and zest on the mid-palate with delicate peachy notes on the finish. This should drink well for several years. 89-91 points

A blend of Tillets, En La Barre, Sous La Velle, Corbins, Pré de Manche, Meix Tavaux and Chaumes de Narvaux. Antoine prefers to assemble all his village plots these days. Lemon and lime in colour. Very stylish with some apple and citrus notes, yet fully ripe. A solid rounded full-bodied Meursault in the mouth, of a sort not seen so often these days. This should develop character with age but will be accessible fairly early. 90-92 points
