Tasting Note
Patrick Javillier Meursault Cuvée Tête de Murger 2021 is elegant, finely detailed, and beautifully expressive. Aromas of lemon curd, white peach, crushed almonds, and subtle florals lift from the glass, framed by gentle notes of toasted hazelnut and mineral tension. The palate is precise and layered, showing vibrant citrus, creamy texture, and a long, chalk-infused finish. Fresh, pure, and impeccably balanced, it captures the refined side of Meursault with exceptional clarity.
About the Winery, Production & Critical Reputation
Patrick Javillier is one of Meursault’s most respected producers, known for meticulous vineyard work and a style that marries richness with striking mineral freshness. Tête de Murger is a blend of two top lieux-dits—Les Casse-Têtes (stony, high-elevation tension) and Les Murgers de Monthélie (rounder, more generous fruit)—vinified and aged in French oak with a judicious use of new barrels. The 2021 vintage in Burgundy produced wines of purity and finesse, and critics have praised Javillier’s lineup for its precision and lift. Reviewers frequently score Tête de Murger in the low-to-mid 90s, noting its vibrancy, polish, and ability to age gracefully. This 2021 release exemplifies Javillier’s hallmark balance: depth without heaviness, and Meursault elegance with crystalline definition.
