The winemaker

The History of Jamet Cellars


The history of Caves Jamet is a family one and has lasted for five generations. The Jamet family estate was born in 1898 under the Provencal patois name of Clos Val'Aouri, which translates to "The Valley of Mistral".

Alfred Jamet combined his activities as a winegrower and a blacksmith. His first parcels belonged to the territory of Châteauneuf du Pape. In 1960, Jean-Paul Jamet took over the estate and integrated the bottling process. He first sold his wines to individuals and company committees, before developing their marketing on a large scale. When he handed over the estate to his son Eric, the estate had acquired a remarkable notoriety, both nationally and internationally, with high quality wines.

Jean-Paul had in the meantime created Caves Jamet -Le Sang du Peuple, in homage to his special vintage "Le Sang du Peuple", which is still today the estate's must-have vintage.

Eric's daughter Léa has joined the family business and intends to continue the work of her ancestors.

The Caves Jamet vineyard


The vineyard of Caves Jamet is traditional and in line with the domains of the Côtes du Rhône. It consists of 60% Grenache and 20% Syrah. The remaining 20% is devoted to Mourvèdre, Cinsault and Muscardin.

The plots of land that stretch across the hillsides benefit from the generous sunshine of southern France. The soil is covered with rolled pebbles that used to be the old bed of the Rhône. During the day, these pebbles store heat and then release it during the night. This helps maintain a more stable temperature that promotes full ripening of the grapes.

The Caves Jamet estate is run using sustainable agriculture, with the greatest respect for the environment and biodiversity. The Jamet family has always relied on the mistral wind, which is so beneficial to the vines. Indeed, by beating the vines, this powerful wind sweeps away the diseases of the vine and ensures that the grapes remain dry and healthy. The mistral allows us to work the Caves Jamet estate without using synthetic products to treat the vines. In addition, plowing and working the soil avoids the use of chemical weed killers.

The grape harvest is done manually. The grapes are then the object of the greatest attention. They are destemmed and gently crushed to preserve their qualities, before being assembled in the vats. They benefit from the constant temperature and humidity of the vaulted cellar where the barrels and tuns rest.
