Prosper Maufoux Pinot Noir Bourgogne 2023

 Prosper Maufoux Pinot Noir embodies the authentic essence of the variety, offering a fresh, fruit-forward profile. Seductive aromas of blackcurrant and cherry emerge on the nose, while soft tannins on the palate attest to the wine's perfect ripeness. Tank vinification enhances its purity and freshness, making it an ideal choice for a wide range of food pairings. The grapes are sourced from prestigious terroirs in the Côte d’Or, Saône-et-Loire, and Yonne regions, where clay-limestone soils impart structure and elegance. Hand-harvesting ensures the selection of the finest clusters, which are gently destemmed and transferred without pumping. A 4-to-5-day cold soak at 10°C precedes fermentation, which lasts approximately 18–20 days and involves daily punch-downs or pump-overs to extract aroma and structure. Following malolactic fermentation, the wine is aged in stainless steel tanks for 10 months, preserving the vibrancy of the fruit.
