2022 Côte-Rôtie
Domaine Jamet
“Quel panache!” reads the tasting note on this bottling in one of France’s leading daily papers. Panache, indeed, not to mention lifting floral aromatics, salivating bacon fat, and lightly smoked olive notes that are otherworldly. The Jamet family will humbly write this all off as merely part of the terroir, which—while holding much truth—understates the family’s virtuosic touch here, ever precise and meticulous. The Jamets never got the memos on trends, tastes, and fads over the last fifty years. Those have all come and gone while they’ve thankfully just done their thing, which they say is simply giving a voice and expression to their terroir; I say it’s making Côte-Rôtie like no one has ever made Côte-Rôtie before. It really is that good.

About The Producer
Domaine Jamet
Jean-Paul Jamet began his career in the vineyards of Côte-Rôtie in 1976 at the age of 16, working with his father, Joseph, who bottled his first wine that year. Jean-Paul told us that he often found himself working alongside one of our former growers Marius Gentaz, whose vines in Côte Brune bordered his own. With the 2016 vintage, Jean-Paul celebrated his 40th year growing and vinifying Côte-Rôtie. His experience with his enviable collection of sixteen (soon to be nineteen) lieux-dits spread across the best sites of the appellation has given him deep knowledge of how to unlock the greatest expression of Côte-Rôtie from its wide spectrum of terroirs. This savoir-faire makes Jamet the modern day master of the appellation.

Great winemakers, great terroirs, there is never any hurry. And I no longer buy into this idea of “peak” maturity. Great winemakers, great terroirs, their wines offer different pleasures at different ages.
