2023 Domaine Jamet, Cote Rotie 1x75cl

Vinous 95

The 2023 Cote-Rotie begins with pronounced black cherry, forest strawberry and dried violets. A touch of red plum adds further fruit complexity. Midweighted and concentrated, the 2023 shows brilliantly at this youthful stage, delivering fruit-driven allure, ultra-refined tannins and outstanding length. The 2023 jumps at you right away, and while there is assured ageing potential, it will be quite hard to resist in its youth. Outstanding. [Nicolas Greinacher, 01/01/2026]

Cask samples that will make up the eventual blend.Sample 1: Cumilles and Lesardes.Timid nose but attractive fruit on the palate. Some firmness and length but generally fine in style.Sample 2: Rochins, Leyat and Gerine.Explosive fruit with more density and weight. Juicy. Bigger structure.Sample 3: Cote Baudin, Leyat.Sweeter (oak?) but, overall, there s an elegant touch. Drying finish (oak again – three-year-old barrels).Sample 4: Bonnivieres, Tartaras.Slightly herbal, the acidity more affirmed. Structured.Sample 5: Gerine.Most important parcel at the domaine, so key to the blend. Intensely floral with violet and potpourri notes. Palate round, with fine, well-integrated tannins.Sample 6: Fongeant.Second-most important parcel, so another key element in the blend. Fresh and vibrant, with good persistence. Violet notes to the fore. Very fine tannins. (JL) [14/10/2024]
