Jamet Côtes-du-Rhône Rouge 2021 Bottle size: 750ml
France, Northern Rhône
R625
‘Certainly a big step up from their IGP Syrah, this has deeper fruit and a more classically northern expression. It's light-bodied, without great concentration. Tannins aren't intense, but they're certainly strict and structured. Some red fruits among the black bring a slightly perfumed element. Freshness, good acidity and low alcohol make this very drinkable, a leaner year. All destemmed. 2023-2025’ – Matt Walls, Decanter.com, 90/100
‘Tinned strawberry, mulberry – a lick of cracked black pepper beneath. A sprinkle of clove, pepper and cinnamon on the palate. Light in body, refreshing and so drinkable. Light and floral and already ready. A subtle liquorice note on the salty finish. So utterly drinkable, delicious and easy. 2023-2028’ – Alistair Cooper MW, JancisRobinson.com, 17/20

| Producer information | Jean-Paul Jamet is arguably the leading producer in Côte-Rôtie and his approach has not changed over more than 40 vintages. He continues to produce hauntingly beautifully, but remarkably traditional wines. The wines of Domaine Jamet appeal to wine lovers around the world seeking classic, tensioned wines that show honesty and the soil in which they are grown. One of the most traditional wine producers in Cote-Rôtie, Jean-Paul blends 25 parcels, mostly from the Côte Brune, and uses little new oak and most of the stems. His maturations are longer than most and his wines are released later than other producers. Jean-Paul is slowly handing over custodianship of one of France’s great domaines to his son, Loïc. |
