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.
Tasting Notes
- WA99+
- A wine that might rival the 2001 when all is said and done, the 2010 Chateauneuf du Pape Cuvee de La Reine des Bois is an incredible effort that does everything right. Possessing a voluptuous, decadent and super-rich profile, it stays graceful and perfectly balanced, with beautiful freshness, a stacked mid-palate and a blockbuster finish. Opening up in the glass, with copious blackberry, cassis, graphite, violets and spring flower-like nuances, it needs another 2-3 years of bottle age, and will have upward of three decades of overall longevity.
