Vintage Character Domaine Antoine Jobard Meursault Genevrières Premier Cru 2020 comes from one of Meursault’s most prized Premier Cru sites, Genevrières, where Chardonnay on limestone-rich, stony soils is prized for combining breadth with striking mineral precision. The 2020 vintage was widely regarded as strong in Burgundy: a warm, dry growing season delivered ripe, concentrated fruit, while timely harvest decisions helped preserve freshness and definition. In Genevrières, this balance of sunlight, drainage and classic calcareous soils gives the wine its signature tension, floral lift and finely etched, age-worthy structure.
Tasting Profile & Food Pairing Wine Advocate awarded this vintage 93 points, and the glass shows why: the nose opens with lemon zest, white peach, green apple and acacia, layered with crushed stone, hazelnut and a discreet smoky note. On the palate, it is intense yet controlled, with a sleek but powerful texture, bright acidity and a long, saline finish that pulls the wine toward precision rather than opulence. Pair it with roast turbot, veal in a light cream sauce, or simply grilled lobster with beurre blanc.
Winery Background Domaine Antoine Jobard is one of Meursault’s reference-point estates, continuing a family tradition associated with purity, restraint and remarkable longevity. Antoine Jobard succeeded François Jobard and has maintained the house style: careful vineyard work, hand-harvesting and a measured, non-showy approach that lets site speak clearly. Fermentation and élevage in barrel, typically with a patient maturation and restrained use of new oak, build texture without masking terroir. The result is a benchmark white Burgundy that captures Genevrières’ finesse and the domaine’s celebrated sense of discipline.
