Bourgogne Les Sétilles

Ideal with a swordfish fillet marinated in lime, fried calamari or a hot or cold Brie.

Until the last day, the 2021 wine year is trying. Marked by severe episodes of frost between April 5 and 9 which significantly reduced the harvest, the vines awakening was difficult, and the months of April and May were rainy and cool. Until the harvest, which began on September 20, the brutal weather changes set their tempo: responsiveness and constant attention are necessary. Fortunately, the lull in June allowed the flowering to take place without incident and veraison was favoured by good conditions which set in from mid-August. The wine comes from around sixty Climats located mainly in the villages of PulignyMontrachet and Meursault. Depending on the vintage, certain plots from Hautes-Côtes de Beaune and Côte Chalonnaise complete the blend of this cuvée.
