This starts off particularly high-pitched and very savory on the nose, with cured meats, olive brine, and a bit of bright funk, almost barnyard. I love that kind of thing, but there has to be fruit, and thankfully it emerged really quickly- a super-pure, really fresh, yet obviously ripe blackberry just behind the savory blast, with a bit of baking spice thrown in for good measure. Palate is pretty much exactly the same as the nose. It's very concentrated and present, but has a surprising brightness to it, especially as the fruit itself clearly falls into the darker spectrum.
Only reason I'm not rating it higher is that I think it'll easily improve after a few years, when the fruit harmonizes a little more with the umami. It's not the most "elegant" Cote Rotie I've tried, but it's already super expressive and beautifully balanced in the slightly heady/full style. (962 views) | | | Tasted by KeithAkers on 10/15/2023 & rated 92 points: I decanted this for ~12 hours before drinking. This is clearly youthful, but still showing off a ton with red cherries, raspberries, sour berries, olive paste, crushed rocks, violets, black pepper, sweet tobacco, licorice, and currants. The Full bodied feel is deep and poised with crisp, medium+ acidity and youthful, medium+ tannins. This is a real classy, young Cote-Rotie. It certainly will benefit from a good 10+ years of aging, but it also feels like it will greatly reward that aging. (1268 views) | | | Tasted by jviz on 7/30/2023 & rated 90 points: In a lineup of N. Rhone syrahs including an 18 Xavier Gerard CR, a 17 Texier Cote Rotie, and an 18 Jean Claude Marsanne St. Joseph, this did not perform as well as I had hoped.
It’s still far too youthful, and needs another year in bottle, but even then, felt a little light/dilute in context. Some delicate nuances going on, not too reduced, so it’s a nice wine, but not one I indeed to seek out. (1470 views) | | | Tasted by rmcnees on 5/21/2023 & rated 93 points: From the wine-list at Husk Restaurant in Savannah.
Dark purple colored, full bodied with full, round, concentrated black currant fruits with tones of smoked bacon and cherry cola flavors accented by floral, cassis, and notes of spice and pepper with fine grained tannins on a long finish. A great example of Cote Rotie high achiever with decent value.

Medel+ tanniner, medel syra. Fruktintensiv där björnbär är den mest tydliga aromen (snarare än chark och peppar). Medel+ lång med härlig intensitet. En utmärkt Cote-Rotie som behöver vila av sig lite bäbishull. Gärna till grillat kött alla dagar i veckan. (1968 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.

Patrick Jasmin represents the fourth generation of winegrowers in his family. He has been working at the vineyard he now runs with an expert hand since 1978. His 6-hectare property in Ampuis, birthplace of the finest Côte-Rôtie wines, is planted 95% to Syrah and 5% to Viognier. He practises sustainable viticulture, with low yields, and takes a somewhat artisan approach, carrying out all tasks on the steep hillsides by hand. He vinifies his grapes parcel by parcel and intervenes as little as possible. Patrick Jasmin favours aromatic finesse over power. His wines are elegant and supple with a very fresh and refined range of aromas that perfectly express the terroir’s distinctive character.
Courted the world over, the ethereal Côte-Rôtie of Patrick Jasmin is as brilliant as it is rare.
Jasmin is noted around the world; heralded and collected and for that, it has become a staple of the famed rare wine establishments and the secondary market. Its price generally pushes further north with years in bottle, making it a prized catch.
In the US this wine is brought in by none other than the well-established oracle of all things fine and french, Mr. Kermit Lynch.
‘Adherence to tradition and respect for terroir are at the heart of Patrick’s philosophy—a stark contrast to the growing trends of long macerations and use of new oak. These wines show great balance in their youth, gaining more complexity with cellar age.’ KERMIT LYNCH
Closer to home we call to mind Tim Kirk and the legendary wines of Clonakilla. The story that led Tim to his unique and pioneering Shiraz Viognier blend started with his travels in the Rhone Valley and the discovery of the unique Cote-Rotie wines of Guigal.
'The wines are handcrafted with great care, the aim being to faithfully reflect the beauty of the extraordinary vineyards. These are not blockbusters, they are medium-bodied wines of genuine finesse, retaining purity of fruit and silkiness to their structure that has more than one commentator comparing them to Burgundy.' TIM KIRK - CLONAKILLA
Patrick Jasmin has a small property in Ampuis, the birthplace of the finest Côte-Rôtie wines, that is planted 95% to Syrah and 5% to Viognier. He practises sustainable viticulture, with low yields, and takes a somewhat artisan approach, carrying out all tasks on the steep hillsides by hand.
His wines are elegant and supple favouring aromatic finesse over power in order to express the terroir’s distinctive character. It's Burgundy, via way of the Rhone, and all the better for it. Elegant, restrained and pure Syrah.
CUVÉE PRESENTATION
True to the wine tradition of the Côte-Rôtie, the domain has favoured a blend of Syrah and Viognier. This gives a more pronounced suppleness and fruity character to those of black fruit, violet and peppery notes which are typical of Syrah. Cultivated on a variety of soils (gneiss, mica-schist, clays, limestone, sand, pebbles), these two varieties were harvested by hand and fermented for a long time in stainless steel thermoregulated vats. The wine was then aged for between 18 and 24 months in barriques. It has a beautiful ruby hue and has aromas of ripe red fruits and spices. It will pair beautifully with red meats or tasty gratin.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.
