Jobard's 2009 Meursault Sous la Velle fills out its mid-weight frame nicely, with layers of pear, white peach and jasmine that flow effortlessly. Sweet floral notes resonate on the impeccably pure, classy finish. Anticipated maturity: 2012+. 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.
