Nov 15th, 2018The wines of the Jamet brothers always have the capability to convince. Even after a bottle of DRC... Elegant and full of character. 38l/ha, no destemming, a 20-day fermentation and a usage of only 20% new oak during an élévage of nearly two years. First class wine! It is a mystery though if the brothers are still making wine together nowadays. Rumor has it that since 2013 Jean-Luc is no longer involved at Domaine Jamet (and is working 1ha out of the total 8ha on his own now).

Feb 17th, 2016Brilliantly balanced with fondant-like tannins and racy acidity. Only 13%! Oodles of blackberries. More, please!
