The producer

Domaine Jamet, founded by Joseph Jamet in 1950, began bottling their own wines in 1976. Since 1991, the estate was managed by brothers, Jean-Paul Jamet and Jean-Luc, but in 2013, Jean-Luc decided to start his own domaine, leaving Jean-Paul today fully in charge of the family domaine.

The domaine is located on a plateau in the village of Le Vallin, in the hills above Cote Rotie close to Ampuis. Today the estate produces three different Cote Rotie’s from 8.5 hectares of vineyards.

The wine

With fruit sourced from 20 different vineyard parcels, the Cote Rotie is blended from a variety of terroirs, aspects, and vine age, in order to achieve the most balanced and complex expression of the commune. Whole bunch fermented, and macerated for about 3 weeks, the Cote Rotie is aged for 22 months in barrels of which 15% are new.

We choose our wines based on a range of criteria (see how we choose our wines) of which critic scores is just one. Rather than simply highlight the best score to promote a wine, our average critic score is calculated from the scores provided by several respected wine critics, who we follow for specific regions. They do not represent all critic scores and, wherever possible, we try and give more weight to more recent reviews. Where appropriate we consider market-based scores like Global Wine Score or Wine Searcher Average scores.

As a rule, we look to offer wines that achieve a 92/100 average critic score or better and frankly a lot of very good wines simply don’t make the cut. As a high-end provider we want to reflect that positioning in the quality of wines we offer. Such wines are only a tiny fraction of those generally on offer in the market. We believe that an average score is a more conservative and representative approach, but it is still subjective and only offered as a guide to our customers, who will (and should) do their own research. We will add individual critic scores to our website in the future.
