Ch\u00e2teau de Saint-Aubin stands majestically along the Burgundy Grands Crus route. Ideally located south of Beaune, in the appellation area adjacent to the eponymous village, Ch\u00e2teau de Saint Aubin is today as famous for the wines it produces as for the hotel and wine tourism experiences it offers.<\/p>\n

Historical roots<\/h2>\n

Ch\u00e2teau de Saint-Aubin, while not as well known as its illustrious neighbors Ch\u00e2teau de Pommard and Ch\u00e2teau de Meursault, has nothing to be ashamed of. It remains one of the oldest in the region, with over 300 years of history. Owned in its early days by the Comtesse de Tr\u00e9bon, descendant of a musketeer under Louis XIII, the estate changed hands several times.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

Since 2010, Ch\u00e2teau Saint-Aubin has been managed by Maison Prosper Maufoux. The latter is building on its long-standing reputation. In 1960, a notary by the name of Prosper Maufoux decided to change direction, and went into the wine trade. Following the purchase of a private mansion in Santenay, and a partnership signed in 1947 in the United States, the Maison name became a benchmark in France and across the Atlantic.<\/p>\n

Today, the Piffaut family is at the helm of this historic company. Following the purchase of the Ch\u00e2teau in 2019, a new path has opened up for the estate, between hotels and wine tourism experiences.<\/p>\n

A terroir in the heart of the C\u00f4te de Beaune<\/h2>\n

The C\u00f4te de Beaune<\/a> arises to the south of the C\u00f4te de Nuits<\/a>. The two together form the highly prestigious C\u00f4te d’Or. It is planted almost exclusively with Pinot Noir and Chardonnay. However, in terms of prestige (although, once again, there are many exceptions), we tend to schematize as follows: the best reds in Burgundy come from the C\u00f4te de Nuits, and the best whites from the C\u00f4te de Beaune.<\/p>\n

Ch\u00e2teau de Saint-Aubin is not one of the exceptions; on the contrary, it cherishes the one and only Chardonnay, the region’s king grape variety. Located south of Beaune, the domaine enjoys a slightly sunnier terroir, with complex soils derived from a combination of limestone, clay and red clay. Some of the vines, grown using sustainable viticulture methods, are located just a few meters from the Ch\u00e2teau, in the Clos du Ch\u00e2teau climat, classified as a Premier Cru in the Saint-Aubin AOC.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

Prosper Maufoux wines<\/h2>\n

Maison Prosper Maufoux’s winemaking reflects Burgundy’s ancestral heritage and the know-how for which it is renowned. A distinction must be made between Prosper Maufoux wines, planted with traditional Burgundy grape varieties in various appellations throughout Burgundy (Chablis, Pommard, Bouzeron …). Wines sold under the name Ch\u00e2teau de Saint-Aubin Prosper Maufoux, on the other hand, come exclusively from the Saint-Aubin area and are made from Chardonnay only.<\/p>\n

This is a dry, generous white wine, which the b\u00e2tonnage process and oak barrel ageing have softened and made gourmand. Delicate notes of white flowers and almond make it the ideal match for shrimp tartare with lemongrass and ginger, or codfish plancha with creamy asparagus and hazelnut risotto.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
