Cuvée Margot

Margot, the Queen and also the name of a daughter of Olivier Leflaive.

Vineyard

We decided to blend vineyards from la Côte de Beaune, from Puligny-Montrachet to Pommard, la Côte de Nuits and old vineyards in les Hautes Côtes. About twenty different plots. Cuvee vinified from the purchase of grapes and from selected cuvees.
