The 2012 Domaine Jamet Côte-Rôtie is an absolutely monumental wine from this challenging vintage in the Northern Rhone. Tasted with eminent Washington vigneron, Christophe Baron, this beautiful wine needed more than an hour decant. The seductive nose picks up gorgeous range form red fruits to citrus rind and bulls blood as well as iodine that all connect marvelously in the glass. The palate has tremendous verve and energy, as the silky mouthfeel and wonderful tension in the wine create a lasting effect. A dusting of white pepper hits you instantly, alongside bacon fat, red cherry puree and red plum infused black tea flavors all marvelously aligning. The mouth-watering acidity to the wine is absolutely stunning. Fantastic now, this beautiful wine will continue to evolve over the next two decades. Drink 2019-2035- 95

Vibrant ruby with wonderfully precise aromas of blackberry, clove and black cherry. Cracked black pepper and fresh blackberry on the palate with great acidity, ripe tannins, a hint of larger and very clean black fruit. Dynamic wine, showing very well.

Holy rotie! Pepper, boysenberry, cured meats, smoke, dried herbs, med tannin and nice acid. After smelling another wine in the flight and going back to the cote, it was total peppered beef jerky. Amazing! Thanks for sharing Doug!

Compared to the '13 from two nights ago, this is very aromatic, soft and drinkable (obviously will get much better).
