Ripe apple and tangerine, a touch of vanilla, rich and full but not flabby or overripe like some 2018s. Deep long finish, pretty satisfying. B+

2018 vintage

Quite fragrant. Citrus, flint, and oak. Long finish. Quite liked it.

Robe jaune avec reflet brillant d'intensité moyenne Nez ouvert d'intensité moyenne - sur des notes d'élevage, grillé, légère réduction, coquillage léger La bouche est très plaisante aux saveurs de zeste de citron, pomme verte, minéralité. Belle salinité en finale.

Casual dinner with French friends and some Maconnais/Chalonnaise wines, only brief impressions. Fresh and grassy, almost like a Sancerre, good base level quality.

2018 vintage

Drank second half a day layer and no where near a good. Maybe should try vacuum bottle stopper.

2018 vintage

Bold, lemony, some oak.

2018 vintage

Clear very light yellow. Great nose, lemon curd, brown butter, more lemon and mineral. Dry medium weight lemon flavours and a perfect finish. Neither rich, ripe or exotic.

Clear light yellow. Medium light nose, dominated by lemon, also some brown butter and spice. Neither ripe or tropical. The finish is dry and leaves a clean palate. Not for long term aging.

acidic, charming

2018 vintage

Tropical nose and palate, stays lovely and lifted through the mid palate, and then flint signals the end of a long long finish. A delicious wine that is uncomplicated but by no means unserious.

No notes, but what sticks in the memory is that this has a lovely nose. It's a clean light yellow in the glass, and it has a very satisfying palate with medium body. There are tropical fruits, some minerality, crisp acidity and a longish finish. This is dangerously slurpable. It strikes me as still quite young with some potential upside and probably 6+ years enjoyable drinking life ahead. Over 3 days it improved over night and held steady over the …

A little crisper and cleaner than i would have thought. A little tight on the nose too. Rounder on the palate, again, with gumption but showing tight. Let's see where it goes!

2018 vintage

Fun to have had this about five months after the 2017 (the tasting note’s here somewhere!) and I’d say Ferret’s thoughtful viticulture made it through the heat pretty well; it’s got lemon oil, light pear, maybe a hint of grassiness and just a touch of stoniness on the nose. The palate’s generous and round, accessible but there’s still nice freshness if not quite the cut of the previous vintage with a nice nutty finish. Still, definitely one of the better …

Distinct pineapple notes

I thought this more Cote d'Or-esque than Maconnish (I love making up words). Expressive nose -white flowers, hazelnuts, ripe apple. Medium bodied, pear and lemon on the palate. Good finish, with a bit of oak and mineral. Solid and classy Chardonnay. B+

2007 vintage

Trip to Burgundy; 6/7/2009-6/10/2009 (The Cote d'Or) : Jadot bought over Domaine J.A. Ferret's property and recently begun to bottle this with the designation Domaine J.A. Ferret. This was very good, and I would never have picked it out as a Pouilly Fuisse. Awesome nose, very expressive indeed with nuts, buttery toast, chalky powder, savoury mushrooms and a touch of pain l’epice. Palate was rather simple after all that, but it did have a good, sappy richness and a nice, …

2007 vintage

medium yellow color. crisp acidity with a solid core of creamy pears, green apples and minerals. a long, smooth finish. some crystal sediment in the glass. lots of personality.
