On returning from the war in 1945, Patrick Javillier’s father Raymond took over the running of the vineyard and expanded the estate.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"c1\"\u003eAfter qualifying as an oenologist in 1973, Patrick Javillier left to do his military service and then upon his return in 1974 he made wine for the first time. Since 1980 the estate has grown further with the acquisition of more vines and the addition of those belonging to his wife’s family.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"c1\"\u003ePatrick is one of the most reflective of white wine makers, the walls of his cellars and the sides of his barrels being covered in chalk where he has been developing one or another of his theories. He is convinced that long élévage on the lees is essential for the future development of the wine in bottle, so he uses a Vaslin press for his whites because it keeps more of the solids than a pneumatic press. Most of the wines are taken out of barrel after a year, then matured further in tank on their fine lees.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"c1\"\u003eThe Bourgogne Blancs are vinified as crus and have all the character of real Meursaults. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"c1\"\u003ePatrick Javillier is now one of Meursault's best growers and since 2005 has been joined by his eldest daughter Marion after she completed her studies in management, oenology and viticulture.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"c1\"\u003e\u003ca href=\"http:\/\/www.patrickjavillier.com\/index-uk.php\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"\u003eDomaine Patrick Javillier Website\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","products":[{"product_id":"domaine-patrick-javillier-bourgogne-blanc-cuvee-des-forgets","title":"Domaine Patrick Javillier Bourgogne Blanc Cuvée des Forgets 2021","description":"\u003cp\u003eDomaine Patrick Javillier Bourgogne Blanc Cuvée des Forgets comes from different parcels in the Bourgogne Blanc appellation situated in the territory of Meursault les Herbeux and les Vaux next to Volnay. The nose is expressive, elegant and powerful with notes of white and yellow fruits, succulent flowers and touches of toast. On the palate, the wine displays fine balance and a lovely body with crisp acidity. The same aromas are found as on the nose.
