I thought this more Cote d'Or-esque than Maconnish (I love making up words). Expressive nose -white flowers, hazelnuts, ripe apple. Medium bodied, pear and lemon on the palate. Good finish, with a bit of oak and mineral. Solid and classy Chardonnay. B+

Trip to Burgundy; 6/7/2009-6/10/2009 (The Cote d'Or): Jadot bought over Domaine J.A. Ferret's property and recently begun to bottle this with the designation Domaine J.A. Ferret. This was very good, and I would never have picked it out as a Pouilly Fuisse. Awesome nose, very expressive indeed with nuts, buttery toast, chalky powder, savoury mushrooms and a touch of pain l’epice. Palate was rather simple after all that, but it did have a good, sappy richness and a nice, rounded balance, with fleshy white fruit moving into a decent finish that showed ripe red apples and lingering nuttiness. What it lacked in complexity, it more than made up for it with charm. 90-91
