About this wine
J A Ferret is a long-standing name in Pouilly-Fuissé, the Mâconnais appellation that turns Chardonnay into something richer and more mineral than simple Burgundian white. This bottling reflects the estate's straightforward focus on the grape and the place, without embellishment.
Expect the appellation's hallmark combination of ripe orchard fruit and a stony backbone, with enough weight to stand up to richer seafood or a simple roast chicken. Serve at 10-12°C, cool enough to keep the mineral edge sharp.
