2023 Côtes-du-Rhône Blanc
Domaine Jamet
From a pinnacle producer in northern Rhône comes a showy white that goes above and beyond with fruit from the plateau above Ampuis. Primarily a blend of Marsanne and Viognier, Jamet’s blanc is bright and textured with notes of honey and apricot. Pair with seared pork chops, braised butter beans, or any kind of autumnal root bake.

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.

Living wines have ups and downs just as people do, periods of glory and dog days, too. If wine did not remind me of real life, I would not care about it so much.
