2022 Domaine Jamet Cote-Rotie Cote Brune #264942130
750ml
Reviews 98 points Vinous "The 2022 Cote-Rotie Cote Brune is a head-turner. Explosive blood orange, rose petal, raspberry, blueberry, cedar, crushed rock and violet aromas exhale from the glass. Bursting with purity and intensity yet remaining almost weightless in the mouth, the 2022 is flat-out stunning. It will be fascinating to compare it with the monumental 2020 and 2021 renditions. For now, the 2022 Cote Brune is well on its way to rank alongside its preceding vintages. (NG)" 18.5 points Jancis Robinson "Cask sample. Gorgeous nose, spice and ripe fruits, violets, raspberry and so wonderfully perfumed. The palate is fine and super-intense with succulent tannins. Juicy, delicious and super-fine. Elegant and layered on the finish as well, beautifully balanced and poised – so good even at this stage. Needs a huge amount of time to come together. (AC)"

About Domaine Jamet
Domaine Jamet, located in the heart of Côte Rôtie, is a producer famed for crafting exceptional wines that capture the true essence of the terroir. Led by Jean-Paul Jamet, along with his wife Corinne and son Loïc, the domaine has been dedicated to sustainable farming since 1976.
With steep, terraced schist and granite slopes above the village of Ampuis, Domaine Jamet produces a staggering 19 single-vineyard Syrahs from some of the finest parcels in the appellation. Their winemaking philosophy revolves around minimal manipulation, allowing the wines to express themselves fully. Starting with whole-cluster fermentation, each parcel is vinified separately. Unlike others, the Jamets prefer the use of neutral vessels such as larger pieces and demi-muids, allowing for a more judicious integration of oak flavors. After aging for up to two years in barrels, the wines are bottled unfined and unfiltered, resulting in remarkably silky, refined, and aromatic wines.
The vineyards of Domaine Jamet are situated on the steep hillsides and terraces known as chayets, characterized by schist and granite subsoils. Jean-Paul and his family have a deep respect for the land, striving to preserve and respect its exceptional nature. Their extensive experience and intimate knowledge of the terroirs enable them to craft highly nuanced wines with captivating perfumes, velvety textures, and remarkable balance.
Jean-Paul Jamet's unwavering dedication to preserving the authenticity of Côte Rôtie has established him as one of the appellation's greatest masters. The wines of Domaine Jamet, with their seductive textures and enchanting aromas, provide an exceptional and unforgettable wine-drinking experience, truly capturing the essence of this renowned region.
