Domaine Jamet (Côte-Rôtie)
Black raspberries, grilled meat, smoke, bacon fat, earth, spice, pepper and herbs grab your attention, and keep you focused on what's in your glass. Powerful and stuffed with a wild, masculine, personality, the wine offers ample freshness and purity. The meaty finish is filled with ripe black cherries, pepper and Provencal herbs. This beautiful expression of Cote Rotie is drinking perfectly today. 3,427 Views Tasted Aug 24, 2011 |
When to Drink Domaine Jamet, Anticipated Maturity, Decanting Time
Domaine Jamet, when young, should be decanted at least 1-3 hours, give or take, allowing the wines to soften and open their perfume. Older vintages might need very little decanting, just enough to remove the sediment.
Domaine Jamet is usually better with 10-12 years of cellaring and should be at its best between 10-25 years of age.
Serving Domaine Jamet with Wine, Food, Pairing Tips
Domaine Jamet is best served at 15.5 degrees Celsius, 60 degrees Fahrenheit. The cool, almost cellar temperature gives the wine more freshness and lift.
Domaine Jamet is best served with all types of classic meat dishes, veal, pork, beef, lamb, duck, game, roast chicken, roasted, braised, and grilled dishes, tomatoes, eggplant, and sausage. Domaine Jamet is also good with Asian dishes, and hearty fish courses like tuna, mushrooms, and pasta.
