Domaine J. A. Ferret, Pouilly-Fuisse, Les Perrieres

Gorgeous mineral and orchard fruit with a citrus backbone. Still very bright and fresh. Lovely and delicious.

In my cellar since release. Bright light lemon yellow color. Nose is reduced showing a good bit sulfites but with air mellows to show citrus, white stone fruit, pear and apple, but mostly is mineral driven. Bright acidity and wet stones dominate the attack and the finish. Mid palate shows the fruit and a little menthol. Finish is long and lovely. This was shockingly similar to the Hanzell 2012 DeBrye vineyard chard. Youthful and crisp showing no detrimental signs of …

PnP at a tasting. This probably would have benefited from a decant. It has a bright medium yellow color with a slightly reduced mineral and floral nose. Honeysuckle, pear and apple are the flavors most prominent with a crisp saline finish. Very enjoyable and consistent with previous bottles.

Light to medium lemon yellow color. The nose is light and crisp with lemon blossom, wet stones, lemon peel and a touch of palate is both crisp with acidity and textured with an oiliness about it. The flavors include lemon curd, minerals, green apple, a touch of grilled peach, underripe pear and a saline and smokey finish. Lovely.

Initially a little funky/near oxidative on the nose but this soon dissipated to reveal a lovely mature nose showing development alongside lovely minerality; similarly balanced and moreish on the palate this was 'à point' on the palate. No need to age further.

Waxy, citric, mineral. Integrated wood. Lovely.

Flash note. A flash note is one that I distinctly remember the quality/overall rating of a wine but can’t give specifics because the tasting note was not written at time of tasting. Decent white paired well with fish.

The goal is always to maintain the freshness. Very pronounced aromas, creamy but still very fresh and long, actually, kinda tight still!

Berkeley Wines-Bernardsville and Kobrand Sponsored Dinner with Domaine Ferret winemaker Audrey Braccini (Osteria Morini NJ in Bernardsville, NJ) : This vineyard is a footpath above the Les Clos vineyard that we also had in this flight. Aged with about a third new oak, a third once used and a third twice used casks just as the Les Clos. Medium lemon yellow color. Nose is smokey, minerally, bright and with subtle white fruit and flowers. Nice mouth feel of a mid-weight …

Enjoying another bottle of this. Just quite delicious, full Bodied but not heavy, honeyed but not sweet. Long in the mouth. Much more complex than many pouilly fuisse.

Really nice. Apple, floral, long finish. Slightly chilled. Pop and pour. Opened a bit in the glass.

just lovely Pouilly Fuisse, round and fruity but plenty of structure. will keep for some years if you can keep the cork in.
