Domaine Ferraton


Domaine Ferraton is a very fine Northern Rhône wine estate that was run for many years by Michel Ferraton. It is now run by Samuel Ferraton, the fourth generation of the family, who worked for a while in conjunction with Chapoutier frères. The firm has vineyard holdings in Hermitage and Crozes-Hermitage and its wine cellars are located immediately behind those of Marc Sorrel in the heart of Tain l`Hermitage.

Samuel Ferraton is very much an artisan winemaker- yet he employs many modern techniques that he picked up while working with the Chapoutiers.

Consequently, the wines are a marvellous marriage of the old and the new, displaying good structure and well-defined fruit characters, allied with very judicious and limited use of new oak. The wines are bottled unfined and unfiltered.

2007 is seen by many as the best vintage in the Southern Rhône since 1990; some go even further back, citing the very greatest of years such as 1947. This is immediately clear from the bright deep colour, then the harmonious nose which marries spice, pepper and hedgerow. The palate ... MORE

Wines Lying in Barrel , Not available for delivery.

This is Ferraton’s second vintage of Cornas, and very impressive it is too. The wild hint that always identifies this appellation is supported in turn by ample ripe black fruit and velvety tannins. Drink 2012-2016.

Made from equal shares of Marsanne and Roussanne, the 2008 Les Oliviers is an absolutely stunning wine, rich beyond the dreams of avarice and wonderfully textured; yet behind the toasty, peachy façade there is an energetic and linear palate. Bravo! Drink 2012-2015.

Medium Bodied, Dry, Red, Syrah/Shiraz, Ready, but will improve, Organic (Certified), Biodynamic (Not certified/in conversion), 12.5% alc.

The Grand Courtil demonstrates brilliantly how Crozes-Hermitage and a proportion of new oak (30% in this case) can work together. Black olives and tapenade share the honours with ripe, expressive fruit.

Sombre of hue, as it should be, and infused with smoke, graphite and morello cherries, Cornas, Les Grands Muriers is an 100% Syrah wine, dense, with a hint of the sauvage; a very fine effort indeed.

Les Miaux in 2008 impresses with its soft and silky fruit and almost Burgundian texture. Grégorie was pleased with this description but is keen to emphasise also the length and depth of the wine, which has been aged for 16 months. Drink 2013-2018.

A blend from some of Ferraton’s impressive holdings on the grantic hill of Hermitage, the 2006 Miaux is seductive and forward, with notes of blueberry and crème de cassis to the fore, the palate being equally attractive, with dense and ripe fruit underpinned by very fine and almost ... MORE

A parcel of 40-year-old Syrah, much-loved by Michel Ferraton, the Dionnières is an expressive and finelyconstructed wine. Still very young, its inherent complexity is clear with notes of licorice, dried fruits and black cherry. The impressive weight of fruit and the power of the ... MORE

"Spice, bacon rind, licorice and sousbois dominate the nose; the palate is powerful and long……..in short a benchmark Hermitage, profound but not overweight, a wine for mid-term ageing. Will start showing its full beauty in 2012" (Simon Field MW, BBR Buyer)
