2019 Beaune 1er Cru “Les Montrevenots”
Antoine JobardAntoine realized his dream prior to the 2018 vintage when he was able to acquire farming rights to prime parcels of Côte de Beaune Pinot Noir in Volnay, Pommard, and Beaune. He pretty much started looking the day after he and his father made the difficult decision to pull out their Pinot vines in the premier cru of Blagny after the 2006 harvest, in order to focus on white wine production in a climat where they already grew Chardonnay. From the first taste in barrel, I immediately understood what Antoine wanted to accomplish stylistically, and the results were love at first taste. He set out to make reds that were silky smooth, elegant, and expressive of their terroir upon release, and he has wildly succeeded. We are very excited to have Antoine’s talent and passion concentrated on the other great grape of Burgundy, and having his vines in the great red appellations right down the road from him in Meursault makes it all the sweeter. Enjoy!

About The Producer
Domaine Antoine Jobard
About The Region
Burgundy
In eastern central France, Burgundy is nestled between the wine regions of Champagne to the north, the Jura to the east, the Loire to the west, and the Rhône to the south. This is the terroir par excellence for producing world-class Pinot Noir and Chardonnay.
The southeast-facing hillside between Dijon in the north and Maranges in the south is known as the Côte d’Or or “golden slope.” The Côte d’Or comprises two main sections, both composed of limestone and clay soils: the Côte de Nuits in the northern sector, and the Côte de Beaune in the south. Both areas produce magnificent whites and reds, although the Côte de Beaune produces more white wine and the Côte de Nuits more red.
Chablis is Burgundy’s northern outpost, known for its flinty and age-worthy Chardonnays planted in Kimmeridgian limestone on an ancient seabed. Vézelay is a smaller area south of Chablis with similar qualities, although the limestone there is not Kimmeridgian.
To the south of the Côte de Beaune, the Côte Chalonnaise extends from Chagny on its northern end, down past Chalon-sur-Saône and encompasses the appellations of Bouzeron in the north, followed by Rully, Mercurey, Givry, and Montagny.
Directly south of the Chalonnaise begins the Côte Mâconnais, which extends south past Mâcon to the hamlets of Fuissé, Vinzelles, Chaintré, and Saint-Véran. The Mâconnais is prime Chardonnay country and contains an incredible diversity of soils.

Living wines have ups and downs just as people do, periods of glory and dog days, too. If wine did not remind me of real life, I would not care about it so much.
