A High-Altitude Meursault Premier Cru, Balancing Power and Minerality

The Estate

Domaine Rémi Jobard follows a family winemaking tradition dating back to the 19th century in Meursault, in Burgundy. The estate is run under certified organic viticulture. Its working philosophy rests on precision in ageing, with a preference for large vessels over the classic small Burgundian barrique.

The Vineyard

The Le Poruzot-Dessus parcel lies on the upper part of the Poruzots climat in Meursault, at an altitude of roughly 230 to 280 metres. This position on a high slope favours marked temperature variations between day and night, thereby preserving the freshness and tension of the grapes. The clay-rich soils over a limestone substrate give the Chardonnay a dense structure while allowing an incisive minerality to express itself.

Vinification and Ageing

The Meursault 1er cru "Le Poruzot-Dessus" 2024 comes from a long, gradual pressing designed to extract a must of great clarity. Fermentation takes place with indigenous yeasts, after which the wine is aged in large vessels, in a spirit of patience and respect for the expression of the terroir.

Grape Variety

This wine is made from Chardonnay, the sole grape variety in the estate's vineyard in Meursault.
