Havent had a young bottle of Jamet that showed well before this one. Had this at a K and L tasting, and this was by far the wott. Acid-driven ripe fruit. Green olives, bacon fat. Concentrated on the palate but still lithe. Very persistent. Likely at an early window as I would expect this to shut down based off my prior experiences. Beauscastel ‘21 was the only other wine I enjoyed at the tasting, but this in another league for me.

Really tastes like a white version of their rosé. Medium (-) intensity. Oily, lithe texture. Grapefruit, canteloupe. Very fresh and light. Nice acidity but in no way ripping. Drank it with a good chill (on ice) and that felt like the right way to serve. Would be great as a summer patio wine if serving oenophiles. I think I would prefer this to the rosé.

Pass for me. High acid without the fruit or structure to match.
