Patrick Javillier has long been regarded as a master of white Burgundy, crafting wines that balance richness with precision. Based in Meursault, his domaine is known for meticulous vineyard work and an unwavering commitment to expressing terroir. Cuvée des Forgets is his take on a broader Côte d’Or expression, sourced from carefully selected plots that capture the finesse of Burgundy’s famed Chardonnay.
Fermented and aged in oak, with a judicious use of bâtonnage, this wine achieves a wonderful harmony between texture and freshness. Ripe orchard fruits—golden apple, pear, and a touch of citrus—mingle with subtle notes of toasted hazelnut, vanilla, and wet stone. The palate is supple and elegant, with a beautifully integrated oak influence that adds depth without overpowering the purity of the fruit. A refined mineral streak runs through the wine, carrying it to a long and satisfying finish.
Cuvée des Forgets is a superb introduction to Patrick Javillier’s signature style, offering Meursault-like generosity at exceptional value.
