Overview of the Wine
One look at the steeply perched, ancient terroirs of Northern Rhône’s Côte-Rôtie is enough to understand why farming them is a badge of honor, yet the Jamet family is fortunate enough to own 7 hectares among 20 of the appellation’s most superb parcels in 15 lieux-dits. Joseph Jamet started the domaine in 1950 with only a third of a hectare in the Côte Brune. Like many of his neighbors, his land had been planted to peach and apricot orchards, as they were easier to farm than the steep vineyard terraces of Côte-Rôtie. Over the years, however, Joseph began to acquire more vineyard parcels throughout the appellation, clearing and replanting several of them himself. Today, his son Jean-Paul and Jean-Paul’s wife, Corinne, run the domaine and have made vast improvements to the estate by instigating soil studies and installing gravity-fed systems into their winery.

Winemaker's Tasting Notes
100% Syrah, raised in large old oak barrels from vineyards just outside the Côte Rôtie AOP, clay and schist soils. Wonderfully lifted aromas of flowers and spice, bright cherry fruit, supple and mineral, smoke, very energetic, light to medium bodied but intense and charming, primary yet subtle, flavoursome; very good length. Quite amazing - not just a Côtes du Rhône!

92 Points - Vinous
The polished 2022 Côtes-du-Rhône is made from fully destemmed grapes. Black-fruited spicy and floral it presents solid flavor concentration and ample freshness. Medium-bodied and round this is shaping up to be a delicious Côtes-du-Rhône

91 Poins - Decanter
Only just ripe on the nose which is surprising for a hot year. Medium-bodied really quite a fresh feel on the palate and good energy. Tannins just a touch on the grainy side but does have focus and intensity. (Drink between 2024-2027)
