The estate and the wine |
|
|
Lord of Côte-Rôtie, Jean-Luc Jamet has expanded the circle of champions of the appellation with resounding success. His talent quickly blossomed: from his very first vintage 10 years ago, the superiority of the terroir made all the difference, unveiling cuvées of exhilarating precision. Produced in very limited quantities, they offer connoisseurs the true essence of a perfectly executed Syrah.
That’s why we immediately recognized its value, betting on this intimate estate from its inception. |

From the prestigious terroir of La Landonne, the 2020 red Côte-Rôtie Terrasses delivers a rich aromatic expression in a deep hue, showcasing the classic Syrah of the northern Rhône Valley with notes of graphite, menthol, black pepper, and smoke. The wine is dense, full-bodied and rich, with firm yet supple tannins that predict a serious aging potential of at least ten years. It meets and even exceeds the expectations for a great wine from this appellation. Rated 95/100 by the Committee. |
