The 2009 Meursault Genevrieres comes across as cool, reserved and intensely mineral. Lime, grapefruit and jasmine are just some of the notes that flow from this breathtaking, finely sculpted Meursault. This needs time in the glass to open up, but when it does readers will be treated to a sublime wine. The flavors are superbly layered, while the chiseled finish is achingly beautiful. The wine fleshed out beautifully on the close. This is a dazzling wine from Remi Jobard. It is the most intensely mineral of Jobard's 2009s. I also tasted a bottle of the 2001, which was utterly divine. Anticipated maturity: 2013+.
This is a striking lineup of 2009s from Remi Jobard. The wines are characterized by finesse and elegance. Jobard began harvesting on September 5th. He opted for a slow pressing that lasted 6-12 hours. The wines were racked into barrel with their fine lees. New oak was 15-20%. The wines spent 12 months in oak followed by 6 months in steel. The 2009s were bottled in February and March, 2011. Jobard has also begun experimenting with larger barrels for some of his wines. The 2009 Meursault Narvaux aged in 950-liter barrel I tasted was hugely promising.
