1995
Domaine Jamet (Côte-Rôtie)
With scents of grilled meat and barbecue beef, garrigue, kirsch, iron and spice. The palate enjoys full bodied sensations of ripe, peppery cherries and black raspberries. This Rhone wine has moved into the prime time drinking stage. Like many 1995 Rhones, there is an austere character to the wine. 4,180 Views Tasted Oct 7, 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.
