2020 Beaune 1er Cru Les Epenottes, Claudie Jobard

Burgundian vines and wine-making are part of Claudie Jobard’s DNA. Her mother Laurence was for many years the highly-respected head winemaker at Joseph Drouhin, and her family runs a nursery which multiplies vines for replanting top vineyards throughout Burgundy. Since 2002 Claudie has been making her own wines in Rully, and from 2011 took over responsibility for additional family vineyards, producing tiny quantities including two Pommards and a First Growth Beaune, Les Epenottes. 2010 was the first vintage we shipped of her wines, which have become favourites with all who try them. All vineyards are now cultivated organically.
