2018 Antoine Jobard 'Blagny 1er Cru' Meursault
CRITICAL ACCLAIM
Vinous - "The 2018 Meursault-Blagny 1er Cru comes from a single plot of around half a hectare in the lieu-dit of La Pièce Sous La Bois. It conveys superb terroir expression, almost Puligny-like in its evocation of wet, cold limestone, wet pavement after a sudden shower and light lemon peel elements. The palate is taut and crisp on the entry, a fine bead of acidity slicing through the intense citrus and orange peel notes, which segue into a quite a spicy ginger-tinged finish. I just want more on the aftertaste, which disappears quicker than I would like. 91-93pts"
Burghound - "An equally pure nose features notes of essence of lemon, spiced pear and lavender hints. There is a notably restrained mouth feel to the tension-filled middle weight flavors that possess good detail on the stony, balanced and linear finish. This attractively dry and crisp effort will need the better part of 6 to 8 years to arrive at its full maturity. 89-92 pts"
