Tasting notes
The Givry Mademoiselle comes from the oldest Chardonnay vines in Joblot's Servoisine and En Veau vineyards. The crisp and fresh nose opens with lovely toasted brioche and lemon peel aromas. The palate is racy, pure and precise, with great, succulent acidity. This is a medium to full-bodied Premier Cru with lovely concentration on the mid-palate, driven by nervy acidity. More white fruit character develops on the long and gourmand finish, with a very pleasant, mineral, mouth-watering sensation, giving the wine a moreish quality. The domaine use 45% new oak for the élevage.

More reviews and scores
I tasted barrels from the two components—Servoisine and En Veau—that will be blended to create Joblot's 2020 Givry 1er Cru Mademoiselle. Offering up aromas of citrus and orchard fruit, this evidently is a medium to full-bodied, fleshy and precise wine in the making; but given the early stage at which I tasted it, I'll refrain from saying much more.
