Domaine Joblot, Givry Rouge Préface, 2022

Domaine Joblot’s Givry Rouge Préface 2022 is a charming, accessible expression of Pinot Noir from the Côte Chalonnaise, offering the elegance of Burgundy with a more generous, immediately appealing style. From one of Givry’s most respected names, this cuvée highlights the region’s hallmark balance of freshness, finesse, and pure red-fruited character.

Tasting Notes
In the glass, it shows a clear ruby color that hints at its lively, fruit-driven profile. The nose is inviting and expressive, with juicy red berries, subtle spice, and a gentle floral lift that adds nuance without overpowering the fruit. The palate is silky and rounded, with soft tannins and a fresh, vibrant acidity that keeps the wine light on its feet. There is a pleasing harmony to the finish, making it enjoyable now, while the structure suggests it will hold well over the next few years as the fruit and spice become even more integrated.

Production
The vineyards are planted on limestone and clay soils, with east-facing plots that help capture early morning sun and support steady, even ripening. Domaine Joblot follows a thoughtful, sustainable approach in the vineyard, aiming to preserve balance in the vines and achieve optimal maturity while maintaining natural freshness. Vinification is kept classic and gentle, with spontaneous fermentation and careful extraction to protect the purity of the Pinot Noir. The wine is then aged in a combination of stainless steel and used oak barrels, adding texture and subtle structure without masking the wine’s bright fruit character.

Food & Serving
This is an exceptionally versatile Burgundy that works beautifully with charcuterie, burgers, grilled meats, roast chicken, mushroom dishes, and rustic everyday cooking. Serve it slightly cool, around 14–16°C, to emphasize its freshness and aromatic lift. Decanting is not essential, though a short rest in the glass can help the wine open up further.

Producer
Domaine Joblot is one of Givry’s benchmark producers and a name closely associated with the rise of the appellation’s reputation in Burgundy. The estate has earned a strong following for its consistent quality and its ability to produce Pinot Noir that is both refined and approachable, with a clear sense of place. Its wines are widely respected for combining traditional Burgundian craft with precision, purity, and charm.
