Another Jobard benchmark and, often cited as a candidate for the best wine of the appellation (if only people had the chance to taste it!) Jobard’s 0.7-hectare parcel of vines lies next to the iconic Genevrières cabotte (or workers’ cottage) in Genevrières Dessous. Year in, year out, this is a wine of great purity and intensity—a personality Jobard attributes to the quality of his vine material, a mass selection planted in the 1960s and early 1970s. “Here, we always get well-formed berries; we never see under- or overripe grapes. The fruit is always well-balanced with good pH and incredible acidity,” he says. Another wine we shouldn’t say more about, except if you’re offered some, grab it. It is great Grand Cru in all but name.

Reviews

“The 2023 Meursault Genevrières 1er Cru has a wonderful bouquet that follows in the footsteps of the stellar 2022, with real mineral drive and a sense of tension even at this early stage. The palate is well defined and poised, revealing fresh tangerine and Clementine notes. It is quite vibrant with a long, persistent tail on the finish. Superb.”
94-96 points, Neal Martin, Vinous
“A notable step above the already impressive Charmes, there is even more precision and nuance here. The medium-bodied palate has welcome, rich dry extract and nuanced dryness that tugs on the finish. The palate flavors explode like fireworks, one after the other: lemon zest, half-and-half, almond paste and Christmas spices. Mesmerizing from start to finish, it is worth trying to experience this, whatever the cost.”
95 points, Christy Canterbury MW, Tim Atkin Burgundy Report
