For over a century and a half, Maison Prosper Maufoux has elegantly embodied the soul and prestige of the great wines of Burgundy . Founded in 1860 by a visionary notary who became a winemaker, it quickly established itself as an essential name, rooted in Santenay before spreading its influence far beyond France ’s borders. Bearing the weight of a rich family history, the House has navigated the ages by reinventing itself without ever renouncing its origins. From its international expansion, notably in the United States in the post-war period, to its revival under the impetus of the Piffaut family in 2010, Prosper Maufoux strikes the perfect balance between heritage and modernity. The acquisition of Château de Saint-Aubin marked a turning point: this historic site became the beating heart of the House, a setting where tradition and innovation interact harmoniously. In the heart of the Côte de Beaune, on exceptional terroirs, Prosper Maufoux tends its vines with the utmost care. Committed to sustainable viticulture certified as High Environmental Value (HVE 3), the House prioritises an approach that respects natural balances. Observation of the soils, the passing on of ancient knowledge and the integration of environmental advancements guide every action, in a constant quest for authenticity and precision. Château de Saint-Aubin now offers an immersive experience at the heart of the Burgundy vineyards. From tastings and cellar tours to walks through UNESCO-listed vineyards or stays in a refined setting, every visit becomes an invitation to explore the estate’s unique world. Beneath the château’s courtyard, the contemporary winery perfectly illustrates this blend of heritage and innovation. Designed as a true technical and aesthetic showcase, it opens out onto the surrounding vineyards thanks to an architecture inspired by the local limestone formations, evoking the very origins of these great terroirs. Thus, Prosper Maufoux continues its legacy with undiminished ambition: to reveal, in every cuvée, the most faithful and vibrant expression of Burgundy.
