Ferret, Pouilly Fuisse Hors Classe Menetrieres Vintage:2017 offering handsomely ripe cherry fruit
Baker’s notes & crumb story
Description
offering handsomely ripe cherry fruit and oak that adds plenty but doesn't intrude
The medium-bodied palate is satiny and concentrated
I can’t recall a more vivid vinous evocation of cantaloupe – every much emphasizing its musky and earthy aspects – than is on display here
Coming from a vineyard planted in 1984
Ferret, Pouilly Fuisse Hors Classe Menetrieres Vintage:2017 offering handsomely ripe cherry fruit(from Fuiss fruit). Pungent aromas of petrol and matchstick display a dollop of wood toast. Once again there is excellent volume to the dense and lavishly rich big bodied flavors that display evident power and punch that carries over to the essence of pear and bitter lemon suffused finish. This is a borderline massive, indeed almost monolithic wine so patience definitely required. 92 2025+
