Antoine Jobard Meursault Blagny, Meursault Premier Cru, France 2022
Meursault-Blagny Premier Cru is a strikingly precise and mineral-driven white Burgundy from one of Meursault’s most respected traditional estates. Aromas of citrus blossom, green apple, white peach, and crushed stone lead into a focused palate layered with lemon oil, subtle hazelnut, and vibrant acidity. Sourced from Blagny’s higher altitude slopes, this premier cru offers exceptional tension and freshness, with a long, chalky finish that highlights its limestone terroir. Elegant, structured, and built to age beautifully, this is a classic Antoine Jobard serious, refined, and beautifully expressive of site.
The 2022 Meursault-Blagny ler Cru had a lot of reduction when I tasted it from barrel, though its intensity was clear. The palate is very promising: wonderful tension here, steely and spicier than the Meursault Village, with touches of fennel and white pepper on the finish. Quite feisty and surely one for long-term aging." Vinous 92-94
