Les Sétilles

A signature wine from the House. Sétilles is the cadastral name of the place in the village where Olivier Leflaive's cellar is located.

The 2022 vintage brought serenity back to the vineyard with a heathy harvest and correct volumes. With rainfall accumulations far from excessive, the year 2022 was marked by average temperatures higher than seasonal norms and rainfall deficits from the start of the vine’s vegetative cycle. At the beginning of April, episodes of frost will recall the terrible nights of April 6 and 7 of 2021, but fortunately with an impact beyond measure. The year 2022 is the year of all records for sunshine with the equivalent of an additional month of July.

Vineyard

The wine comes from around sixty Climats located mainly in the villages of Puligny-Montrachet and Meursault. Depending on the vintage, certain plots from Hautes-Côtes de Beaune and Côte Chalonnaise complete the blend of this cuvée.
