The 2020 Meursault 1er Cru Charmes is superb, unwinding in the glass with scents of freshly baked bread, crisp yellow orchard fruit, orange zest and buttery pastry. Medium to full-bodied, deep and multidimensional, it's satiny and enveloping, with terrific concentration, lively acids and a long, expansive finish.

Notes of white flowers, pear, orange zest, toasted almonds and freshly baked bread introduce Jobard's 2019 Meursault 1er Cru Charmes, a medium to full-bodied, ample and layered wine that's concentrated and unusually giving out of the gates, with an open, enveloping core of fruit that's underpinned by tangy acids.

Offering up notes of citrus oil, green apple, orange oil, fresh bread and nutmeg, Jobard's 2018 Meursault 1er Cru Charmes is medium to full-bodied, layered and racy, with a rather more reserved, introverted profile than the Poruzots this year. This is one wine where at least a modicum of bottle age will be merited.

The 2017 Meursault 1er Cru Charmes was hard to read from barrel, but it has developed beautifully and showed very well indeed from bottle. Mingling aromas of yellow orchard fruit, orange oil and clear honey with hints of oatmeal and dried white flowers, the wine is medium to full-bodied, deep and concentrated, with a blockier, more muscular profile than the suave Genevrières, built around racy acids and chalky structuring dry extract. This is a great Charmes in the making, though it will require patience.

The 2016 Meursault 1er Cru Charmes comes from two parcels, the lower one touched by frost, so that the production is a modest 15% down. It has a pleasant reduction on the nose, well defined however, with good intensity. The palate is very well balanced and is bestowed the richness one expects from this vineyard, counterbalanced by a saline thread that governs the second half. An interesting wine predestined for aging, this is one of the best wines from Antoine Jobard in 2016.
