When discussing the northern Rhône, the name Jamet sparks excitement. In the 1970s, Jean-Luc began winemaking with his father, and in 1985, he co-founded Domaine Jamet in Ampuis with his brother Jean-Paul. Over the years, the domain earned an excellent reputation beyond borders. However, with increasing success, tensions emerged between the brothers. Jean-Luc handled the hard work in the vineyard and cellar but remained overshadowed, while his brother managed wine sales. These conflicts and the desire to eventually pass on his own estate to his son led Jean-Luc to establish his winery in 2012. They divided the parcels between them, with Jean-Luc now owning 8 hectares in prime, slate-dominated locations, including renowned sites like Lancement, La Landonne, Fongeant, Côte Bodin, and Les Moutonnes, in Côte Rôtie. Jean-Luc maintains strict quality standards under his name, with extremely high vine densities of 10-12,000 vines per hectare and consistently low yields of under 40hl per hectare, resulting in exceptional, concentrated wines with captivating fruit and pronounced freshness.
