The Prosper Maufoux Bourgogne Hautes-Côtes de Beaune comes from the Appelatie Hautes-Côtes de Beaune. The total of all the vineyards of the Hautes-Côtes de Beaune cover about 800 hectares, spread over 30 municipalities. The terroir, especially the climate, differs from the higher elevation of the vineyards, from 280 to 550 m, leading to precise wines whose character is increasingly in demand.
Immediately after the manual harvest, the grapes are sorted, destemmed and then carefully transported on a belt in the barrel, without pumping. For the fermentation, a cold maceration is carried out at 10°C for 4 to 5 days. The Alcoholic fermentation lasts between 18 and 20 days with daily dipping. The wine is then barreled and put into barrels, and the malolactic fermentation is carried out in full. The wine is aged for 10 months in stainless steel tanks and oak barrels, of which 20% are new oak barrels
The Prosper Maufoux Hautes Côtes de Beaune has a pale golden color. It reveals aromas of citrus fruits, candied fruits and floral notes. In the mouth it is greedy and powerful, with subtle woody and mineral notes typical of the partial aging in barrel. The finish has a nice acidity and liveliness. Delicious with fried cod with spicy chili.
