History

The culture of the vine first appeared in Burgundy in the 1st century AD. It wasn't until the 13th century however that viticulture appeared in Meursault, thanks in large part to the monks of the Cîteaux. Located in the southern half of the Côte de Beaune, the vineyard of Meursault covers 600 hectares of vine. Producing in particular white wines of great renown from the grape variety Chardonnay; wines from the village are classified under the appellations of Burgundy, Meursault and Meursault 1er cru.

Winemaking

The wines of each vineyard and parcel of Domaine Patrick Javillier are vinified separately in order to preserve the intrinsic characteristics of each terroir. As a result his experience and lengthy tastings of each wine, Patrick Javillier selected two complementary terroirs to create each of the Meursault cuvées: "Tête de Murger" and more recently the cuvée "Les Clousots".

The vinification of the Domaine is adapted to the character of each vintage harvested.

After picking, a specific press regime is conceived for white wines. The must then undergoes oak barrel-fermentation, the amount of new oak barrels employed being determined according to the provenance of the grapes. After maturing 17 to 18 months, the wines are bottled with a minimum of fining and filtration.

The red wine harvest is sorted in the vineyard and 100% de-stemmed. After a cold maceration, pump-overs and some punching of the cap, the wines are matured in barrel for approximately 18 months and bottled with the least manipulation possible.
