WINE DESCRIPTION
Founded in 1986 by Francis Delorme and his son, Domaine de la Mordorée is a prestigious winery located in Tavel, near Avignon. Spanning 60 hectares across 38 parcels, it perfectly expresses appellations such as Tavel, Lirac, Châteauneuf-du-Pape, Côtes-du-Rhône, and Condrieu. The Côtes du Rhône cuvée comes from vineyards certified for organic and biodynamic farming by Demeter, grown on varied soils including sandy, sandy-clay, and limestone pebbles. The grapes are handpicked, destemmed, and macerated for a few hours in the rosé de saignée method. This blend features Grenache, Cinsault, Syrah, Mourvèdre, and Carignan.

ORIGINS
Winery: Domaine de la Mordorée
Region: Rhone
The Rhone wine region is located in southeastern France. It runs along the Rhone River roughly from Lyon in the north to Avignon in the south. It is divided into two main sub-regions: the Northern Rhone, running from Lyon to Montelimar, and the Southern Rhone, from Montelimar to Avignon. Although wines of all color are made, both regions are most famous for thier red wine. The Northern Rhone is known for its full-bodied red wines made from Syrah grapes with the possible inclusion of some white grapes, while the Southern Rhone is known for its blends of Grenache, Syrah, and Mourvèdre grapes. The region has a long history of wine production, dating back to the ancient Romans with the sites of some former Roman vineyards being replanted surrounding the town of Vienne.CUSTOMER RATING
