You hope for a few vintages like this in your life, says Jean-Paul Jamet. This is Domaine Jamet's only single-vineyard bottling, made every year. Rich and round on the palate, full of incense - rose and frankincense and all-enveloping star anise. It has exceptionally fine tannins with a beautiful lush density - sweet and chalky with a dark chocolate flavour. So fresh and aromatic with black pepper and dried rose alongside pinpoint acidity. A very rich and supremely opulent Côte Brune with an amazing cross between the smoky and the floral. A seamless wine. From barrel this was sheer perfection, so could well be worthy of 100 points in bottle.
The 2019 Côte Rôtie Côte Brune is quintessential Jamet with its aromatics, balance, purity, and length, as well as just classic, old-school Côte Rôtie flair. Offering up lots of red, black, and even some blue fruits, it has ample bacon fat and liquid flower nuances, full-bodied richness, a multi-dimensional texture, and a great, great finish. It’s another wine Northern Rhône lovers need to have in their cellar, and it’s going to check in with the greats from both this producer and the appellation.
Also in tank at the time of my visit, the 2019 Cote Rotie Cote Brune is another legend in the making. Violets, roses, herbal tea, chocolate and red berries all mingle easily on the nose, while the medium to full-bodied palate is concentrated and intense; it's paradoxically also silky and nearly weightless. Imagine a gentle whirlwind of airy flavors pushing into every cranny of the palate with intoxicating motes of flavor, then lingering there for minutes.
