Tasting notes

The 2020 Pouilly-Fuissé 1er Cru Les Menétrières displays a brilliant pale gold color with crystalline highlights. Its expressive nose blends white flowers, dried fruit, and flint. On the palate, the texture is ample, structured by a precise acidity, revealing striking minerality and refined complexity. The finish is long and lingering, marked by great aromatic purity and a beautiful saline freshness, a signature of the region's finest limestone terroirs.

Food & wine pairings

This Premier Cru will perfectly complement roasted sea bass, pan-fried scallops or a green asparagus risotto.

Producer

The vines of the Premier Cru Les Menétrières flourish in deep, predominantly marly clay-limestone soils, rich in marine fossils. This geological configuration imparts mineral tension and aromatic finesse to the wine. The JA Ferret estate cultivates its vines with care, using sustainable viticulture practices to respect the natural balance of the soil and the vine. This exceptional terroir, located on the eastern slope of the Roche de Solutré, benefits from optimal sunshine.

Owner and history

Since its acquisition by Maison Louis Jadot in 2008, Domaine JA Ferret has experienced a resurgence while preserving its strong identity. The estate is managed by a dedicated team that showcases the unique character of the Pouilly-Fuissé terroir, combining Burgundian tradition with sustainable viticultural practices. This renewal culminated in the official recognition of Premier Cru status in 2020, a testament to the estate's rigorous work and commitment to quality.

Vinification and aging

Winemaking at Domaine JA Ferret is based on a plot-by-plot approach, with fermentation in oak barrels, including a measured proportion of new oak, in order to preserve the purity of the fruit.
For the 2020 Les Menétrières vintage, aging on fine lees for approximately 15 months adds texture and complexity, without ever masking the expression of the terroir. This meticulous work results in a balanced wine, built for aging and with great aromatic precision.

The team's opinion

This Pouilly-Fuissé 1er Cru Les Menétrières 2020 impresses with its crystalline purity, floral elegance and a mineral tension of rare intensity.
