Winemaker Audrey Braccini was on hand to show me both the 2020 and 2021 vintages at the Fuissé-based domaine that was purchased by Louis Jadot back in 2009 but treated as a separate entity (readers will find notes for bottlings under the Louis Jadot label in this report). “The 2020 vintage was not as sunny as we expected given the weather forecast,” Braccini told me, referring to the cooler June and perhaps the sunshine hours compared to the previous two years. “We harvested from 24 August, even earlier than 2003, but we don't find the exotic fruit. The Les Clos and Les Perrières will be blended to make a Premier Cru that might be labelled Clos de Jeanne. Two thousand and twenty-one was a long harvest that began on 22 September and finished at the end of the month. It was difficult to separate the growing season from how the wines are showing in barrel, but the wines seem to possess amazing energy.” I was deeply impressed by Ferret’s wines last year, and their 2020s are quite superb, crowned by an exemplary Les Ménétrières, a climat that seemed to perform strongly in this vintage. Indeed, my hunch is that it will be the standout in 2021 in a curtailed range that is taut and fresh, albeit produced in tiny quantities.
