Description
Sitting on fissured limestone covered by a thin layer of marl, Maladière is a stony, steep, south-east-facing hillside. The Muzard family cultivates 4.35 hectares on this slope, with an average vine age of 60 years. The steep slope forces them to plant grass to control erosion. The vines are de-budded, leaf-thinned and harvested by hand. The grapes are never crushed, but mostly de-stemmed, with around 30% whole harvest. Alcoholic fermentation is carried out with indigenous yeasts. The wine is lightly pigmented during vatting. After 18 to 20 days, the wines are devatted and blended with free-run and press wine for ageing in Burgundy barrels, 15 to 20% of which are new. A third of the cuvée is aged in foudres. Aged for 12 months.
