2024 Prosper Maufoux Bourgogne Chardonnay Elégance

The Bourgogne Chardonnay "Elégance" is made from a selection of the best Chardonnays from the Côte Chalonnaise and the
Mâconnais, whose clay-limestone soils express the full richness of the Chardonnay. The result is an authentic wine with impressive finesse.

Immediately after harvest, the Chardonnay grapes are pressed whole bunches in a pneumatic press, followed by 24 hours of static settling at 12°C. The must is then transferred directly to barrels where alcoholic and malolactic fermentation takes place. Maturation takes place for 10 months in stainless steel tanks and French oak barrels (20% new oak).

The Bourgogne Chardonnay Elégance is a perfect introduction to Burgundy's most prestigious appellations, thanks to a selection of the finest Chardonnays from the Côte Chalonnaise and Mâconnais. This gives it a powerful, woody note, a guarantee of exceptional quality. With a very charming nose, it releases aromas of citrus and notes of exotic fruit. A delightful glass and, of course, excellent with shellfish, oysters, and seafood.
