Community Tasting Notes (average 89.8 pts. and median of 90 pts. in 65 notes) - hiding notes with no text

 Tasted by Brix on 1/19/2021 & rated 90 points: It's been several years since we last had this wine, and it's benefitted from the time sideways. An elegant example of Côte Rôtie, displaying maturity and balance. Lovely texture, subtle but beguiling nose, and a pleasure to drink. Held well over three days under a Vacuvin cork, throwing only a small amount of sediment. Well stored bottles should be in prime drinking window, with years to go. (1871 views)
 Tasted by Gaurav_Tiwari on 10/5/2020 & rated 94 points: Dull ruby with an orange meniscus, medium viscosity. Dried red and blue fruits, meat, leather, tobacco aromas coming through. The tannins were resolved and the wine still had plenty of acidity. Dry wine, medium acidity, medium minus tannins, medium body and alcohol. Long finish with more meaty smoky flavors. Very well balanced and complex. Yum! (1897 views)
 Tasted by theRealPepe on 12/8/2017 & rated 91 points: Third bottle within the year and the best showing. Color seems concentrated and darker. The wine, while still too light for what one expects from Cote Rotie, has a meatier taste and darker fruit. It was a nice pairing with leg of lamb. Excellent. (3383 views)
 Tasted by derek.hara@sbcglobal.net on 10/9/2017 & rated 90 points: Pretty, elegant Cote Rotie. Floral on the nose, color starting to fade hazily. Still plenty of life on the palate, lots of fruit and acid to support.
Definitely in its drinking window. (3398 views)
 Tasted by Bacchus&Ceres on 8/30/2017 & rated 89 points: Delicious, dark purple opaque fresh, herbaceous black raspberry and cassis, tears medium thick and fast, clean fresh ripe fruits, easy drinking straight out of bottle, not overly complex, medium intensity and clean finish. Probably wonderful with roasted chicken. (3484 views)
 Tasted by Seb Frefranc on 6/24/2017: Got this recently from producer. Cork was dried out. Initial nose with red berries, plums and some peppery spices. Palate completely unbalanced. High acidity, no grip, no fruit, some "old wine" notes. Nose also died quickly and developed more and more unpleasant notes. Not drinkable. Off bottle? (2708 views)
 Tasted by robferguson1 on 6/7/2017 & rated 88 points: Drinks well, strawberry style , thin , not the guts you'd expect from cote route but acaequate (2597 views)
 Tasted by theRealPepe on 5/29/2017 & rated 90 points: Reddish-brown brick color, almost translucent. Nose reminds me of Burgundy with cherry fruit, earth, mushroom and mild spice. Palate is bright with fruit with acid backbone, again with earth and mushroom. It's nice and if from Crozes or even Saint Joseph this could be considered a stunner at 13 years after the vintage. But it's a tasty light wine from Côte Rôtie and in that sense a disappointment, missing the bacon, meat and smoke. Nonetheless, enjoyable for what it is, especially since after tasting a bottle in winter was expecting this. Though light, the acid made it a fine companion to New York strips with "wild" rice (actually brown rices with forbidden rice). Excellent. (1683 views)
 Tasted by KeithAkers on 1/15/2017 & rated 85 points: Cassoulet with (mostly) Cote-Rotie&Hermitage (Jordan's, Northbrook IL): Nose: The nose is a bit simple and straight forward with raspberries, red cherries, black pepper, and crushed rocks. There seems to lack the expression this can bring and the nose never woke up.

Taste: Medium bodied with medium+ acidity and medium tannins. The structure is fairly resolved here with silky tannins. The feel is elegant, but like the nose is lacking depth with raspberries, black pepper, crushed rocks, and some red cherries.

Overall: This was sadly boring. It never seemed to fully rev up and reveal itself. Instead it was simple and not all that exciting. (1343 views)
 Tasted by acyso on 2/18/2016 & rated 88 points: Syrah dinner at Formento's (Chicago, IL): I loved the red fruit and stemminess on the nose on this, though it did give way to a little bit more earthy funk with air. On the palate though, this is where it misses the mark. This is a bit unintegrated and angular, with more than a few angles here and there. Lots and lots of acidity, without much plushness or density to knit everything together. A workable bottle of syrah which definitely suffered being served after much denser wines. (3723 views)
 Tasted by Bacchus&Ceres on 1/31/2016 & rated 89 points: Strawberry nose perfectly serviceable well structured decent value afternoon quaff for casual lunch good with food. Lean feel related to metallic , red bright fruit slight spice, drinking well now, no sense holding. (2910 views)
 Tasted by beatles on 11/5/2015: Tired, lean – no good. (1522 views)
 Tasted by pbaek on 11/5/2015: 2004 Rhone Tasting chez Lillelund (Lilleund's home): Bizarre nose, roasted and green at the same time. Metallic smell. Uninteresting, not worth spending time on in this setting. Went down the bucket fast. (3622 views)
 Tasted by T.E.D. on 4/12/2015 & rated 87 points: Very old world and lean. (3332 views)
 Tasted by pcwoz on 3/29/2015 & rated 90 points: very nicely balanced. Very very good. Not massive fireworks but very well made. Red fruits end of spectrum. Once secondary development (2941 views)
 Tasted by Finare Vinare on 10/9/2014 & rated 92 points: The nose is well developed, quite complex, yet restrained. The palate is lean, well-built, sinewy, with light, spicy, smoothened tannins. Doesn't have the unripe pyrazine greenness of Jamet's 04. So elegant, a real treat! (3462 views)
 Tasted by mye on 7/3/2014 & rated 87 points: Opened for the Other side of July 4th on WB. Ruby red core with some bricking on the edges. Spicy black peppery funk, some stewed tomatoes nose.
A bit simple on the palate.. Red fruit, nice acidity.. Other than a bit of a bitter finish the wine isn't bad, well balanced, and goes down easy. (3287 views)
 Tasted by Catnapped on 5/17/2014 & rated 83 points: Smelled good with a nice smokey nose, sort of flat on the palate. Gave it a couple of hours to come around and then gave up on it. It's probably seen better days. (3192 views)
 Tasted by Rezy13 on 12/6/2013: Friday Night Double Blind Tasting $40+ (Bin 75): Dense cloudy core of dark red with light rim; raw meat, balsamic, tomato, raspberry, funk; smooth texture, plush, balanced; drinking really well right now; very tasty. (3194 views)
 Tasted by CWilliam on 12/2/2013 & rated 93 points: Aerated into decanter and was mixed randomly in a group of 6 wines for a double blind tasting.

Nearly everyone (including myself) guessed this was a Burgundy from a ripe year. Very light red in color - Beautiful nose - floral, earthy, cranberry, red currants, black tea. Similar flavor profile on palate. Medium to light body, rich acidity & long finish with some velvety tannins still there. I loved this. 93+ (3030 views)
 Tasted by onewineheaven on 6/29/2013 & rated 89 points: Nice, floral nose with a short, somewhat under-ripe finish. (3361 views)
 Tasted by OlegE on 4/21/2013 & rated 90 points: Beautiful dark ruby color, but clear, having transparency of Burgundy wines. As suggested by appearance, there is no much body. Flavor is unusual if not strange. There are no berries, fruits or flowers, but complex and rather intensive flavor of mostly grass and leaves, clove comes to mind, and olives. Birthday party did not provide the right environment for the analysis. Acids are plentiful, and there are some tannins and tart creating an illusion of young wine. At the end there is a taste of langenberries and cranberries, especially their tart. There is a feeling that grapes were not ripe enough to reach the potential. Overall, elegant wine, resembling Burgundy wines more than Rhône wines. Interesting, but, IMHO, overpriced. (3046 views)
 Tasted by RyanJames on 3/28/2013 & rated 90 points: Still pretty young, and not tired at all like some earlier tasting notes may have suggested...a little funk upon opening, but that blew off in 30 minutes to reveal basil, ripe tomatoes, red flowers, red fruits, and a great amount of complexity on the nose. I kept smelling this. Not a crowd pleaser (not everyone liked it), and not as thick or rich as I would have liked, but a really good example of a "burgndian" cool climate syrah. Lots of acid, subtle red fruits, and a decent finish. The vintage is definitely not helping to elevate this, but I could see this lasting and getting a bit better over the next 5 years. Too expensive for the flavor profile/quality for me, unfortunately. 2010 northern rhone St. Josephs (i.e Gonon) and Texier syrahs @ $30-40 are much better wines IMO. (3010 views)
 Tasted by Rezy13 on 2/15/2013 & rated 92 points: Crimson color with bricking; stank on the nose with some sulpher notes, some green characteristic (veggies) on the nose along with some red fruit; weighty on the palate with red fruit, some tannin yet velvety mouthfeel. Could have sworn this was Burgundy because of the stank, great acid, and lack of pepper. There was also some strong minerality on the finish- probably calcaire. (2786 views)
 Tasted by Ben Christiansen on 12/8/2012: By far, BY FAR, the best I have ever had this wine. I bought it years ago because it was a Kermit Lynch Cote Rotie. Sure, right? Why not. And then, for years, men's gym socks. Not good, and I thought a waste of money. So I through it into this line up for fun.

Now: sweet tomato leaf, there were discussions of french women and how they might smell after a night together (in a romantic way) and smooth and pure. Interesting, not anything like an aged Cornas. And still lots of drive and energy on the palate. No reason to drink up.

So how did this wine get to French woman from gym socks? (3103 views)

Patrick Jasmin


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.

Patrick Jasmin Côte-Rôtie

VITICULTURE / VINIFICATION
• 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.

The Rhône Valley/Le Vins de la Vallée du Rhône (Comité Interprofession des vins AOC Côtes et vallée du Rhône)

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.
