10 year old White Burgundy!


2003 Domaine Ferret Pouilly-Fuisse Tete de Cru “Les Perrieres”....$31.99

Wow, I was quite surprised by this wine, as 2003 was a famously hot vintage and Pouilly Fuisse are not known for their long life, but the 2003 Ferret “Les Perrieres” is still amazingly fresh and vibrant. This wine also represents the last vintage made under the uncompromising eye of Madame Ferret (before she passed and the estate was sold to Louis Jadot). A rare treat to find a White Burgundy that is so perfectly aged priced $20 less than current release price (2010 sells for $50). At $31.99 this wine is a fantastic value.
