About this winery

Located high above the town of Ampuis and the Rhône River, Domaine Jamet produces tiny quantities of stunning Côte-Rôtie. The estate was founded in the 1950’s by Joseph Jamet and he began domaine bottling in 1976. In 1991 his son’s Jean-Luc and Jean-Paul took charge of the business slowly acquiring small parcels to expand the estate. Jean-Luc left in 2013 and today Jean-Paul and his wife Corrine run 7 hectares of beautiful vineyards. The estate is spread across 16 different lieux-dits...

December 2022 (Vintage 2019)

"Saturated ruby. Powerfully assertive aromas of ripe black raspberry, cherry liqueur and violet pick up olive, cola and incense nuances with air. Juicy, focused and deeply concentrated, this wine offers intense black and blue fruit, olive paste, floral pastille and exotic spice flavors that become more lively as the wine stretches out. The interplay of richness and energy here is superb, and the wonderfully long, spice- and mineral-driven finish features harmonious tannins and reverberating florality."

February 2022 (Vintage 2019)

The 2019 Côte Rôtie Côte Brune is quintessential Jamet with its aromatics, balance, purity, and length, as well as just classic, old-school Côte Rôtie flair. Offering up lots of red, black, and even some blue fruits, it has ample bacon fat and liquid flower nuances, full-bodied richness, a multi-dimensional texture, and a great, great finish. It’s another wine Northern Rhône lovers need to have in their cellar, and it’s going to check in with the greats from both this producer and the appellation.

January 2022 (Vintage 2019)

Also in tank at the time of my visit, the 2019 Cote Rotie Cote Brune is another legend in the making. Violets, roses, herbal tea, chocolate and red berries all mingle easily on the nose, while the medium to full-bodied palate is concentrated and intense; it's paradoxically also silky and nearly weightless. Imagine a gentle whirlwind of airy flavors pushing into every cranny of the palate with intoxicating motes of flavor, then lingering there for minutes.
