The Domaine Patrick Javillier is located in Meursault, one of the most important appellations of Burgundy. The Javillier family has owned its own vineyards here for centuries. Patrick Javillier, trained as an oenologist in Dijon, took over the family business from his father in 1974.
The Domaine has several small plots spread across Meursault, totaling no more than 9 hectares. Javillier makes a different wine from each vineyard, as his goal is to express the specific ‘terroir’ as purely as possible in the taste of the wine. As a result, two wines from different vineyards can have very different characters.
Javillier produces several white cuvées, in which he blends wines from different vineyards. The vinification, the way the wine is made, depends on the harvest. This means there can also be notable differences between vintages. Javillier makes wines that can be aged for a long time. They are among the top of the Côte d’Or.
