Jean-Luc is the brother of Jean-Paul Jamet. Till the 2012 vintage they were the co-owners of Domaine Jamet (Jean-Luc was in charge of the vineyards work and the wine making, while Jean Paul was in charge of the marketing Domaine Jamet’s wines). In 2013, they separated their ways: the vineyards’ holdings were split between them and Jean-Luc established Domaine Jean-Luc Jamet. The flagship domaine’s wine, Côte Rôtie Les Terrasses is made from the same vines that went into Domaine Jamet’s Côte Rôtie.
Jean-Luc Jamet’s wines are pure and stunning, and represent great value for their qualities.

The 2016 Cote Rotie shows lovely black cherry and dark berry fruit. It’s medium to full-bodied, with a rich, supple mouthfeel and a long, silky finish. It’s not the most nuanced Côte Rôtie out there, but it’s certainly satisfying, and it should continue to gain complexity over the next decade or so.
