Domaine Patrick Javillier

Marion Javillier and Pierre-Emmanual - Patrick Javillier - WImbledon Wine Cellar

Burgundy 2022 en Primeur now available!

Keeping it in the family and making wines of a lifetime... Few names are more respected amongst the cognoscenti of Burgundy than that of Patrick Javillier, whose estate in Meursault we have been visiting for close to twenty years. Given that Meursault is one of the world’s capitals of great, ageworthy white wines, this is some reputation indeed. You cannot fail to be charmed by Patrick. This is a winemaker who who clearly adores his craft, his village and always has a zest for life. Mild mannered and gentle, yet with his own distinct personality, the wines of Domaine Javillier are a reflection of the man. He has now handed the mantle to his daughter Marion, who continues this family’s journey of fine wine making and innovation along with her brother-in-law Pierre-Emmanuel Lamy.

Fourteen appellations are produced by the domain from 11 ha. of vineyards in 5 communes of the Côte d’Or department, ranging between Puligny-Montrachet and Pernand-Vergelesses Gorgeously well-sited parcels, patience and a meticulous eye for detail continue to make Domaine Javillier the pundits’ choice. While there is superb quality throughout the range, the two cuvées of Bourgogne particularly stand out. They are given the same treatment as Javillier’s village Meursaults, with extended élévage on the lees and ageing in top quality French oak – and really do give a flavour of Meursault’s intensity and power in an easilyaccessible package. The reds should not be overlooked either - the family has a gentle, elegant hand with Pinot too. They are delicious early drinking wines that again offer exceptional value.

Jasper Morris, Inside Burgundy: I tasted with Marion Javillier and her brother-in-law, Pierre-Emmanuel Lamy. They run the domaine together, Pierre-Emmanuel more in the vineyards and vinifying the white wines, Marion taking responsibility for the reds. Despite the previous year’s shortage, 2022 was still not quite a full crop, thanks to a bit of drought, and 161/49 rootstock issues. With the change of generation there have been no significant changes – some things in the vineyard with more widespread ploughing, a little lees stirring for the whites between the alcoholic and malolactic fermentations – so not for long in 2022. The reds are destemmed and raised with 30% new wood. The whites were picked from 27th August, the reds following on 7th and 8th September. Degrees are between 12 and 13% for both colours.
