Blagny is on the rise and Jobard is one of the stars of this tiny appellation which sits just above the vineyards of Puligny and Meursault, straddling the border of both. Whites and reds can be produced in Blagny, and the whites can be labelled as Meursault or Puligny (as opposed to simply Blagny), subject to the location of the source vineyard. 


Jobard’s Meursault-Blagny obviously comes from the Meursault side of the border, specifically from a 0.5-hectare parcel in La Pièce Sous le Bois, at the very top of the slope. The stony terroir here is at 300-350 metres altitude, just below the forest, so it’s a cool place (especially at night), although the vineyard also picks up plenty of sun during the day. Jobard tends two plots: half with very old vines (planted in 1957), the other half replanted in 2009.

Reviews

“Another high point of the range is the 2019 Meursault Blagny 1er Cru, a medium to full-bodied, lively and concentrated wine evocative of pear, crisp stone fruit, bread dough and dried white flowers. Layered and seamless, it’s an elegant, nicely balanced bottling that concludes with a bright, saline finish.”
92 points, William Kelley, The Wine Advocate
“It has a pleasant bouquet with apple blossom and honeysuckle aromas emerging from the glass. I would like to see more terroir expression here. The palate is nicely balanced, the spicy entry (lemongrass and ginger) leading to a weighty, concentrated, powerful finish that lacquers the mouth. Give this three or four years once in bottle. [Tasted twice, once at the Domaine and then in the UK.]” 90-92 points
