Les Sétilles is a dependable staple of Olivier Leflaive’s portfolio. The
classy 2005 will reward fans of white Burgundy who love tracking
down bargains from a great vintage. Olivier LEFLAIVE’s talented
winemaker, Franck GRUX, used chardonnay from Meursault and
Puligny-Montrachet to create Les Sétilles subtle, tropical scent,
bracing flintiness and lightness. Cool it ; don’t ice it. Drink it young.
