The Javoy family in Mézières-les-Cléry has been making wine since the 18th century. It was in 1987 that Pascal Javoy took over the family estate, which now covers 16 hectares in Orléans and Orléans-Cléry. His passion for vines goes back to his childhood and has never left him since. It goes without saying that he has a rare mastery of the soils and grape varieties of the two appellations, from which he produces cuvées that always strike a fine balance between the expression of the terroir and the nuances of the vintage. With the support of his wife Nadine, he has made Clos-Saint-Avit a solid benchmark whose award-winning wines are a delight to connoisseurs.

Deeply attached to the land, Pascal Javoy is committed to sustainable viticulture, recognised by the national Terra Vitis label.
