- Description
Patrick Javillier's Domaine is located in Meursault, one of the most important appellations in Burgundy. The Javillier family has had their own vineyards here for centuries. Patrick Javillier trained as an oenologist in Dijon and took over the family business from his father in 1974. The domain has several small plots spread across Meursault. Together no more than 9 hectares. Javillier makes a different wine from each vineyard because his goal is to express the specific 'terroir' as purely as possible in the taste of the wine. Two wines from different vineyards can therefore have a completely different character. Javillier makes several white cuvées, in which he mixes wine from different vineyards. The Javillier makes vinification, the way in which the wine is made, dependent on the harvest. There can also be striking differences between the vintages. Javillier makes wines that can be kept for a long time. They belong to the top of the Côte d'Or. The Patrick Javillier Corton Charlemagne Grand Cru comes from a climate called “Les Pougets”, on the hill of Corton near Aloxe-Corton, Pernand-Vergelesses and Ladoix-Serrigny with a south-facing location. This Grand Cru wine is characterized by a robust, rich, complex style, with hazelnut and fresh walnut as the most prominent scents. Very robust in the mouth, with notes of ripe apple and apricot, mineral, beautiful acidity and a very long aftertaste. The entire allocation for the of this extremely scarce wine is 24 bottles. The absolute icon of Javilier
