ANTOINE JOBARD 2020 POMMARD

The Jobard family produced red wine for many years, most notably from the Blagny 1er Cru La Pice Sous le Bois. They pulled the vines after the 2006 vintage to replant the vineyard to Chardonnay, and Antoine has been looking for a way to make red wine again ever since. In August of 2019 Antoine was able to lease the vineyards of the Domaine Andr Mussy, a oncethriving domaine in Pommard. The vineyards are completely organic, having never seen chemicals, and Antoine spent a lot of time revitalizing them well in advance of the 2019 harvestan effort that really shows in his brilliant first effort from these vines. He farms 6 hectares in all, featuring a collection of village and premier cru wines from Beaune, Volnay, and Pommard.
