Prosper Maufoux Bourgogne Chardonnay

The regional appellations or Grand Crus, the firm remains equally exacting in terms of vine tending techniques, grape quality, vinification and maturing; always aiming at getting the very best from each terroir. The grape used in this Cuvée are from Côte Chalonnaise. The soils are predominantly chalky clay to highlight all the powerfulness of Chardonnay.

VINIFICATION

Our vinification methods aim to preserve the balance, harmony and unique expression of these outstanding terroirs. The grapes are pressed and the juice is clarified at low temperature to preserve its freshness. Alcoholic and malolactic fermentations take place in a temperature-controlled stainless steel vat. This is followed by aging on fine lees in a stainless steel vat for 10 months. The wines are carefully stored in our vaulted cellars in Santenay for 12 to 18 months in order to fulfill their maximum potential. Regular tastings and technical analyses allow us to follow their evolution and guarantee their quality and authenticity.
