2022 Antoine Jobard Pommard Village

After working alongside his father for several years, Antoine has officially been in charge of this prestigious estate since 2007. Although Francois has been enjoying his retirement for a few years now, he can still be found in the vineyards and cellar almost daily to assist his son. With Antoine's arrival, the style of the wines has changed slightly. Through a few minor changes during winemaking, they have become more accessible and refined, without losing character. Antoine prefers to work with finer lees than his father. Furthermore, he bottles the wine in April/May of the second year following the harvest. These are just details, but the quality of the wines has improved further as a result.

In August 2019, Antoine was able to lease the vineyards of Domaine André Mussy, a once-flourishing estate in Pommard. The vineyards are fully organic and have never seen chemicals, and Antoine spent a great deal of time revitalizing them well before the 2019 harvest—an effort that truly pays off in his brilliant first attempt with these vines.

The 2022 Pommard Village has more clarity on the nose than Jobard's previous Beaune Premier Crus. The palate is medium-bodied with firm tannins, undergrowth, and bay leaf. It is again quite peppery towards the finish, although it leans slightly towards the rustic side.
