| Community Tasting Notes (average 90.1 pts. and median of 91 pts. in 24 notes) - hiding notes with no text | | | Tasted by The Vines That Bind on 1/23/2024 & rated 91 points: Fun to try, notes from memory, totally massive and a little overblown / really shows the heat. This shows a little more like Cabernet than Syrah or at least Cote Rotie, not much smokiness, no florals, no olive, etc., Pleasant and nice to drink on a freezing cold evening apres ski. (435 views) | | | Tasted by liber on 8/19/2023 & rated 91 points: 5th of 12, decanted an hour, perfect cork and level, gone back into shell a bit since 2 excellent bottles in 21, even showing a slightly green edge as seen in first bottles, plenty here and not over alcoholic or hot, fine underlying style and should re-emerge with higher rating than F (17.5). (435 views) | | | Tasted by AKoenophile on 4/22/2023: WOW. At first open, it’s a ton of date oxidation but that quickly blows off and was hitting its stride about an hour in.
Dinner was crafted around the wine - chicken thighs with green olives, olive brine, artichokes, and an appropriate amount of poached garlic. Absolutely perfect pairing. Didn’t see green olive as a tasting note, but that would be more appropriate than black. Briny and incredible.
At an hour and a half, hard to believe this baby is twenty years old. It’s extraordinary. First Jasmin experience and I don’t expect it will be my last. (487 views) | | | Tasted by beatles on 5/16/2022 & rated 90 points: God, in fine harmony, rich like the vintage (his wines so often reflects the vintage 1:1), some warmth, but 2003 is well handled here. Olives. bacon, ripe fruit. No complaints.
#AB&Guillaume (1292 views) | | | Tasted by liber on 10/2/2021 & rated 93 points: 4th of 12, decanted an hour, perfect cork and level, as August's bottle, attractive, upside. F+ (18). (960 views) | | | Tasted by wabi47 on 9/7/2021 & rated 89 points: good provenance; overripe cherry, reasonable acidity; a hint of oxidation; seems past prime.
oddly much better on day two, less ripe, deeper, more complex and no hints of oxidation (720 views) | | | Tasted by liber on 8/14/2021 & rated 93 points: 3rd of 12, decanted an hour, perfect cork and level, much rounder, lovely fruit, grip, nice persistence, fresh for an 03, still some upside. F+ (18). (692 views) | | | Tasted by pbaek on 2/15/2021: Weird showing. Didn’t express much, if anything at all. Not obviously corked either, but I assume this was an off bottle. (886 views) | | | Tasted by Dave Canada on 6/20/2020 & rated 93 points: Absolutley gorgeous, red fruited and not showing any effects from the 2003 vintage. 12.5% Alcohol.
Stunning cote rotie with flowers, fat, red fruit and smoke. (1148 views) | | | Tasted by liber on 4/3/2020 & rated 91 points: 2nd of 12, decanted an hour, perfect cork and level, much more ready to drink than bottle in Dec 18 and happily losing green edge in favour of attractive cool, black and smokey fruit, surprisingly dry mid palate, but long and persistent, scope for upgrade when fully mature. F (17.5). (687 views) | | | Tasted by liber on 12/28/2018 & rated 90 points: 1st of 12, decanted an hour, perfect cork and level - dark, glossy red, not too dense, youthful robe; attractive, cherry, fresh plum, some spice, green pepper edge; medium, long, quite persistent, bit pinched, fresh, quite nicely balanced, no heat, early days. VGI (17)…….I think this should resolve nicely and lose the green edge in a couple of years, so I would expect to upgrade. (1057 views) | | | Tasted by Blair Curtis on 7/5/2018 & rated 91 points: This was one of the best 2003s I've had from France. I'm no fan of this freak vintage, but with this wine it seems the finer/restrained style of Jasmin managed to moderate the over-the-top vintage to create a beautiful wine that nobody at the table guessed as a 2003. Some guessed that the producer must be a bit modern - this was a result of the wine having a bit of a "gloss" from the ripe vintage I think. But everyone was impressed by this as a very good 2003. Nice acids. No hurry on this. Comes across as young yet. (1322 views) | | | Tasted by Kemo Sabe on 10/12/2017 & rated 91 points: Not a ton of notes. Pretty standard CR. Rich flavors of red berries with some dark cherry. Not a showy wine but very solid. Prob suffered from the other glasses on the table. (1459 views) | | | Tasted by Stefanos T. on 9/20/2013 & rated 88 points: Surprisingly when opened up this wine did not offer anything special. Nose was almost not smelling anything at all (!) and on the palate which had a nice elegant and fluid texture (which is the best feature of this wine) there was some candied cherry fruit that I associate with Gamay more than Syrah. Mellow tannins and medium acidity. At ten years of age there was no sign of development or fatigue...
On day two the wine was much more open in the nose with black peppery notes and some florality. On the palate it was also more fruity with candied notes being less. Much better overall than day one.
I do not know how to judge this wine. Current performance based on day two is an 88, but I have the feeling that it might get better with aging although it is neither tannic nor fruit concentration is high. The reason is it youthful and elegant presence now at age ten.
I love the label on the other hand... (3426 views) | | | Tasted by europat55 on 8/27/2012 & rated 91 points: 2003 Syrah/Shiraz (Tasted Blind) (Rich and Peggy's House, Los Altos, California): Very good nose with a little bit of brett. Soft palate. Tasted blind.
My #2, Group's #9 (3801 views) | | | Tasted by Scottlmatthews on 11/9/2011 & rated 90 points: Dark red brick with much sediment-even when decanted (badly might I add in apology). Nose of bright crushed raspberry, white pepper and briar bush that is roasted over a brush fire. Dark crushed blackberries berries is predominant on the palate mixed with orange rind, black pepper, coffee, and non cured bacon. Light body overall, but finishes with semi-firm tannins that carry it to a long finish. Balanced wine. (3385 views) | | | Tasted by Eric on 8/22/2011 & rated 88 points: Dark, peppery and meaty on the nose. Somewhat artificially candied on the palate with acidity that feels a bit disjoint. I am curious to see how this unfolds over the next 24 hours. (4315 views) | | | Tasted by peternelson on 2/27/2009 & rated 92 points: Rosso: Wow! intense nose, blueberry, blkberry, choc., spice, complex, beuat. med. bod, int. t’s, good structure, concentration-fin. Grt stuff. Doug. (1267 views) | | | Tasted by rloomis on 10/15/2007 & rated 88 points: dark toast, black tea, orange, dried orange rind, cherry, touch of dark coffee.
(Kermit Lynch Importer) (2490 views) | | | Tasted by Ben Andersen on 5/3/2006: $62.99 full retail. Reserved but deep nose of cranberry, black cherry and cocoa, with a sweet floral element. On the palate it's old-school in style, with rather a solid tannin framework beneath the dense fruit and coffee notes. Despite the tannin/acid presence, this has rather suave texture, though it's in no way fruit driven; it's quite well balanced but clearly needs years in the cellar... Wow. (RV 5667) (2680 views) |

Domaine Jasmin Vineyards, Wines, Winemaking
The 5.3 hectare Domaine Jasmin Cote Rotie vineyard is spread out over 8 distinctly, different lieux-dits in the southern part of the appellation including: La Chevaliere, Les Moutonnes, Le Baleyat, Coteaux de Tupin and Baudin.
The vines range in age with their oldest vines being close to 60 years old. Their Northern Rhone terroir is a blend of schist, granite, clay and limestone soils.
The steep, terraced, hillside vineyard is planted to 95% Syrah and 5% Viognier. No green harvesting is performed in the vineyards at this traditionally managed property.
Patrick Jasmin produces three Cote Rotie wines. Jasmin Cote Rotie is their main wine.
asmin Cote Rotie come from 11 different parcels, most of which are located on Cote Blonde including the Beleyat, La Tupin, Les Moutonnes and La Cote Baudin lieu-dits.
Jasmin la Giroflarie comes from vines planted in 8 lieu-dits on both the Cote Blonde and Cote Brune, and is made from a blend of 95% Syrah and 5% Viognier.
Jasmin Olea made its debut in 2015. The wine comes from a barrel selection of their main wine. The wine is aged in a higher percentage of new oak barrels for an extended period of time that is close to 24 months before bottling.
To produce the wine of Domaine Jasmin, all the grapes are completely destemmed. This is not a recent development. In fact, this practice started back in 1996.
Each parcel is vinified separately to its own needs. Because the Viognier is planted along with the Syrah, both varieties are co-fermented in traditional cement tanks.
The wine of Domaine Jasmin is then aged in a combination of French oak barrels that range in size from standard 228 liter barrels, 300 liter and 400 liter barrels, up to 600 liter demi muids. The amount of new, French oak barrels used for the aging ranges from 25% to 30%, depending on the vintage.
The best vintages of Domaine Jasmin Cote Rotie are: 2020, 2019, 2018, 2017, 2016, 2015, 2012, 2010, 2009, 2007, 2005, 2003, 2001, 1999, 1995, 1991 and 1978.
Domaine Jasmin Cote Rotie is a lighter, fresher, elegant, medium bodied, traditional style of Cote Rotie which offers fresh, bright red and black fruit flavors.
The wine is at its best in its youth and should in most cases, be enjoyed by its 15th birthday. On average, 1,200 cases of Domaine Jasmin Cote Rotie are produced each year.
Domaine Jasmin also makes a minuscule amount of wine classified as a Vin de Pays from .3 hectares of vines, de Collines Rhodaniennes “La Chevaliere.”
When to Drink Domaine Jasmin, Anticipated Maturity, Decanting Time
Domaine Jasmin, when young, should be decanted at least 1-2 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 Jasmin is often better with 5-7 years of cellaring and should be at its best between 8-15 years of age.
Serving Domaine Jasmin with Wine, Food, Pairing Tips
Domaine Jasmin is best served at 15.5 degrees Celsius, 60 degrees Fahrenheit. The cool, almost cellar temperature gives the wine more freshness and lift.
Domaine Jasmin 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 Jasmin is also good with Asian dishes, hearty fish courses like tuna, mushrooms and pasta.

• Syrah naturally gives low yields, along with occasional de-budding; green harvests are never performed
• All grapes are de-stemmed
• Each parcel is vinified separately
• The skins macerate with the juice for 20-22 days, with regular punch-downs (by foot) and pump-overs. The Viognier for the Côte Rôtie is co-fermented with the Syrah in cement cuve
• After primary fermentation, the grapes are pressed, then wine is racked into barriques where it undergoes malolactic fermentation
• Blending occurs in stainless steel
• Wines are then racked into both Burgundian barrels (228-L, 300-L, and 400-L) and in 600-L demi-muids, 25-30% of which is new, depending on the year. The Jasmins keep their barrels for ten vintages before incorporating new oak into the rotation
• Wines age for 24 months before bottling
• Wines are bottled unfined and unfiltered
The aroma of the wine is floral and vanilla. The taste is rich and you can find cherries, sage, white pepper, red berries and blackcurrants. The aftertaste is remarkably long and multidimensional. The mouthfeel is full and the wine is very balanced. Viogner brings pleasant fertility and flowering to the wine. Excellent wine for red meat and game.
In winemaking, Syrah and Viogner are mixed right from the start. In practice, they grow mixed in plots and are collected in the same containers. It is said that Viogner adds color to the wine, i.e. most obviously it extracts more colorants from the shell of Syria. The slopes of the Cote Rats are really steep, up to 60 degrees, so working with them is really demanding, but the wine does reward the work. Wine can already be enjoyed, but it is generally believed that at the age of five it has reached a good level. The Cote Rotie lasts well for up to 20 years.
Domaine Jasmin History, Overview
Domaine Jasmin was founded at the start of the 20th century. The first vintages made date as far back as 1910. Robert Jasmin managed the estate during the 1970’s, perhaps their peak years until he passed away.
Patrick Jasmin began managing Jasmin after the accidental death of his father, Robert Jasmin in 1999. Patrick, an avid motocross racer, became a champion in France, when he won the Kart-Cross race in 2000. Making Cote Rotie is not new to Patrick Jasmin, in fact, he is the fourth generation in his family to produce Jasmin Cote Rotie.

Syrah Varietal article (Wikipedia) | (Wines Northwest)
Note that some producers in the Northern Rhone distinguish between simply Syrah and "Serine", the latter described as ‘an ancient clone of Syrah, the berries of which are more oval-shaped and less deeply pigmented than Syrah’ by producer Tardieu-Laurent.

Regional History:
Phocaean Greeks established viticulture in the Rhone as far back as 600 BC, but until the 14th century the wines were not seen outside the region. The establishment of the Avignonese Papacy (1305-1377) brought fame to the region's wine-so much so that their Burgundian neighbors to the north banned wines from the Rhone in 1446, a measure that effectively cut off trade with England and other Northern European markets for over 200 years. Stretching southward from Lyon to just south of Avignon, the Rhone produces a wide variety of wines, with the appellations north of Valence producing the least (in volume), and the towns south of Montelimar producing prodigious amounts. As in other regions, the most interesting wines come from small farms. Saint-Joseph, in the northern Rhone, extends for some distance between Condrieu in the north to Saint-Peray in the south. The reds are made from Syrah and the rare whites from Marsanne and Roussanne, and Viognier.

• Soils : In the northern part of the vineyard, the Côte Brune, consists of extremely steep, terraced slopes of ferruginous mica schists which are covered with schist sand (arzel).The Côte Blonde has a varied geology with gneiss and granite predominating at the most southern side of the appellation.
• Climate : tempered continental. Dry, hot summers and frequent rainfalls during the other seasons. History : one of the oldest vineyards in France, first developed by the Romans. It is said that during the Middle Ages, "The Seigneur de Maugiron" bequeathed a hillside to each of his daughters, one was brunette and the other fair. Thus, were born the names of "Côte Brune" and "Côte Blonde".
• Area planted : 230 hectares (568 acres), for an annual production of 8,400 hectoliters (93,333 cases). Authorized maximum yield is 40 hectoliters/hectare (2,3 US tons/acre).
• Grape Varieties : Syrah (80% minimum). An addition of up to 20% of Viognier grapes in the crop is allowed.
