Côte-Rôtie 1981 - Domaine Jamet

The first vintage of the Jamet estate dates back to 1976. It is therefore in just a few decades that this estate has risen to the level of the best estates producing wonderful wines in the northern Côtes du Rhône. Today, Jean-Paul Jamet has succeeded his father at the head of the estate, alongside his wife Corinne and his son Loïc.
Made from a whole Syrah harvest, never destemmed and aged for 22 months in barrels in only 15% new wood, this vintage is a blend of 20 plots, 15 of which are in localities, Côte-Blonde being one of them.

The wines from this estate, and particularly the Côtes-Roties, are made to age for decades. If you are a fan of very great Syrah, this opportunity will not come around often.
