As I reported last year, Juliette Joblot stepped away from directing this iconic 14 ha domaine where the plantings are divided between 11 ha in pinot noir and 3 ha in chardonnay. In her stead, Jean-Marc Joblot hired Hélène Sarkis in September 2021 to run the domaine. However, Sarkis was away on maternity leave so, in a way of looking at things, it was back to old times as it was Jean-Marc who received me. His take on the 2022 vintage was, as usual, simple and straightforward as he noted that "it has the potential to be excellent. We began picking at the end of August and brought in super-clean fruit with moderate volumes, which is to say around 35 hl/ha in pinot and around 42 hl/ha in chardonnay. Potential alcohols ranged from 12.6 to 13.3%, which is perfectly good and certainly less than what we obtained in 2019 and 2020 though less than in 2021. We did our usual vinification and had no trouble with it or the ensuing malolactic. As to the style of the 2022s, they're definitely ripe but the sense of sunshine and warmth is less prominent than say with our 2020s. I like the vintage quite a bit as there's really not anything to dislike." I have to agree with Joblot as several of his 2022s are excellent and are indeed warmly recommended. Tasting note: A markedly more floral-suffused nose features notes of black pinot fruit, exotic tea and a whiff of oak toast. Once again I very much like the texture of the sleeker and finer medium weight flavors that exude a subtle minerality on the firm but refined finale that delivers even better depth and persistence. Excellent.

Bourgogne Côte Chalonnaise / Frankrijk
Familiebedrijf Joblot is diepgeworteld in Givry en combineert dit fundament met diepgaande oenologische kennis. Het domein strekt zich uit over 14 hectare wijngaard, waarvan 13 hectare pinot noir en 1 hectare chardonnay. Jean-Marc en Vincent Joblot zetten dit domein eind jaren zeventig op de kaart, waarbij de ene broer zich over de wijngaard ontfermde en de ander over de kelder. Inmiddels worden ze bijgestaan door Juliette, dochter van Jean-Marc, die de familietraditie voortzet en de nieuwe generatie vertegenwoordigt. Met hun vakmanschap en oprechte belangstelling voor bodemprocessen en de vegetatiecyclus van de wijnstok, maken de Joblots fantastische wijnen met een heel eigen karakter. De wijnpers is unaniem lyrisch: ‘beste wijnen van Givry’ (Perswijn), ‘viticulture perfectioniste’ (La Revue du Vin de France) en ‘Joblot, the uncontested king in the Givry appellation’ (Robert Parker). Bij de vinificatie en opvoeding van de wijnen ligt de nadruk op fraîcheur en vitaliteit. Het aandeel nieuw eiken ligt hoog (rond de 50%), maar het hout ondersteunt de wijnen en overheerst nooit.
