A signature wine from the House. Sétilles is the cadastral name of the place in the village where Olivier Leflaive's cellar is located.
Below 230m altitude, producing AOC village wines is not authorized. Often a simple path separates the Bourgognes area from its well-named neighbours. The soil is quite rich in colluvium and small pebbles. The wine comes from a blend of around sixty selected plots located both in the village of Puligny-Montrachet and also in Meursault. Aged for 14 months, 90% in oak barrels (whose 10% of new oak) and 10% in stainless steel.
This wine is expressive. The aromas of yellow fruits, peach, grilled almond and lemon peel dominate on a mineral background. The attack is full and warm with a slightly smoky finish.
FOOD PAIRINGS - Ideal with a fillet of swordfish marinated in lime, fried calamari or a hot or cold Brie.
