Founded in 1840, Domaine Ferret is located in the natural amphitheatre of Fuissé. Now owned by Louis Jadot, this 18-hectare vineyard is managed by Audrey Braccini, who upholds the domain's tradition of skilful production. This has now become one of the Mâconnais vineyard's most important domains.
The Hors Classe "Les Ménétrières" cuvée is produced from young vines. Fermentation and élevage are conducted in barrels (20 to 30% new wood); the élevage process ends with an eight-month spell in vats on fine lees. The bouquet is fruity and floral, also offering hints of honey and toast. The palate is marked by its richness, generosity and power. A wine which will improve with several years' keeping in the cellar.

Pouilly-Fuissé Tête de Cru Les Ménétrières J.A. Ferret (Domaine) serve at a temperature of 12°C.
