Domaine Ferret, Pouilly-Fuissé, 2022

Probably the finest Pouilly-Fuissé producer that we have encountered, whose wines have that ‘mineral’ edge more typical of Chassagne, Puligny, etc. This comes from a variety of vineyards surrounding the village of Fuissé. It has an immediate approachability, with the Domaine’s hallmark tension and zestiness still in evidence – a thrilling balance. There is an understated oakiness, a slight flintiness on the nose, then honeyed ripeness and creamy texture in the mouth, complemented by bright acidity.
