The Winery
Domaine de la Mordoree
Although it is a relatively recent property, Domaine de la Mordoree is an esteemed producer hailing from the Châteauneuf-du-Pape region of France. Founded in 1986 by Fabrice and Christophe Delorme in the Southern Rhone appellation of Tavel, the brothers make a high-end rosé along with fine Lirac and Châteauneuf-du-Pape. Christophe was able to replant most of the vineyards and modernize the winery, and today they have nearly 100 acres planted throughout Southern Rhône. With historic lieu-dits as well as vines older than 100 years, Domaine de la Mordoree takes terroir to a whole new level and is continuously releasing only the best bottlings.
