A very high, cold, rocky, late-ripening site, Montrevenots is at the top of the hill on the Pommard boundary above Clos des Mouches. It’s a south-facing slope, which mitigates the altitude to some extent. The white clay and limestone soils tend to deliver bright, red fruit notes, raciness and fine, powdery structure. It’s a tiny cuvée at this stage, cropped from just one-tenth of the domaine’s 1.4 hectares. This is because Jobard is replanting most of this site with mass-selection cuttings. Joabrd’s parcel was historically known as the Clos des Montrevenots. The vines that produced the wine are 45 years old and, again, all the bunches were destemmed and given a one-week cold soak before fermentation. There was very little new oak, and the wine was bottled after 12 months on lees. It’s a wonderfully sexy, flowing Beaune with crushed red and blue fruits and striking purity. A bargain!
