If you love classic Côte-Rôtie, Jamet is the name to know. For decades, Jamet has been the benchmark for Côte-Rôtie.
In any year, Jamet's Côte-Rôtie is one of the great wines of the northern Rhône. However, something special happens to Jamet in brisker and more classical vintages. Anyone fortunate enough to have tasted their 1991 Côte-Rôtie can attest to this.
The intention was to significantly depart from the winemaking of the flagship Côte-Rôtie. Fructus Voluptas sees little to no stem inclusion and is sourced from younger vines. This yields a more fruit-driven and immediate lens to view Jamet's winemaking.
There's a punchy minerality with ultra-precise savory notes and bright red fruits.
The heights that Jean-Paul Jamet reaches has few peers in the entire northern Rhône.

In Côte-Rôtie, Bénetière may very well be without peer in terms of balance, detail, and streamlined mineral elegance.
One of the reasons that we've always loved Bénetière's 2013 Cordeloux is that it consolidates all of these qualities brilliantly.

It's pretty much that simple. They are amazingly elegant, precise, and clear.
The heights that Jamet's Côte-Rôties reach have few peers in the entire northern Rhône. Jamet hits a level of gracefulness and agility that is reminiscent of Burgundy. This is Côte-Rôtie in full glory, flaunting a poised and detailed expression of minerals, herbs, spice, savory elements, and florality. The aromatics simply soar.
Levet's Chavaroche is one of the most unyieldingly traditional and fascinating wines currently being made in the northern Rhône. Neal Rosenthal, Levet's importer, aptly sums up the wines: "If you want the truest of Côte-Rôties...if you admire both the intellectual and the savage, then this is a must-buy wine."
Levet’s wines are some of our favorites from the northern Rhône. They are true masters of old-school Côte-Rôtie.

Simply put, there's nothing like Guigal's La La's. Guigal is Rhône royalty and their single-vineyard "La La's" are the justly acclaimed jewels in the crown.
As always, Jamet's 2017 Collines Rhodaniennes is one of the smartest northern Rhône buys you can make.

Last weekend, we offered Gerard's 2017 St. Joseph Blanchard. As expected, it sold out in a few hours. Today, we turn to the 2016 Côte Rôtie. It's Gerard's work in Côte Rôtie and Condrieu that represents the beating heart of the domaine.
