Wine Description:
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.

Wine Expert Note:

Jean Luc Jamet Terrasses Côte-Rôtie is a highly regarded wine from the Côte-Rôtie appellation in the Northern Rhône region of France. This wine is produced by Jean Luc Jamet, a renowned winemaker known for his commitment to traditional winemaking techniques. On the nose, it offers an enticing bouquet of black fruits, such as blackberry and black cherry, accompanied by notes of violet, smoked meat, and a touch of black pepper. On the palate, this wine showcases a harmonious balance between its fruit, acidity, and tannins. The black fruit flavors persist, complemented by additional layers of spice, earthiness, and a subtle hint of oak. The tannins are well-integrated, providing structure and a smooth mouthfeel. The finish is long and lingering, leaving a memorable impression. Jean Luc Jamet Terrasses Côte-Rôtie is a wine that can be enjoyed now, but it also has the potential to age gracefully. It pairs wonderfully with grilled meats, game dishes, and hearty stews. Serving it at the appropriate temperature, around 16-18°C (61-64°F), will enhance its aromas and flavors.
