WINE DESCRIPTION

Domaine de la Mordorée La Reine Des Bois Châteauneuf-du-Pape is a premium wine produced by Domaine de la Mordorée, a renowned winery in the Châteauneuf-du-Pape appellation of the Rhône Valley. The vineyard features a unique terroir with sandy soils and large pebbles, which impart a distinct minerality to the wine. The winemaking process involves traditional techniques such as hand-harvesting and aging in oak barrels, resulting in a complex and elegant wine with notes of dark fruit, spice, and leather. The wine is full-bodied with firm tannins and a long finish, making it a perfect match for hearty meat dishes and aged cheeses.

NOTES FROM VINOVOSS SOMMELIER

This Domaine de la Mordorée La Reine Des Bois Châteauneuf-du-Pape is an elegant and complex wine.On the nose, aromas of black raspberry, cherry, licorice, and violet are complemented by subtle notes of graphite and leather. On the palate, juicy red and black fruits are framed by firm tannins and integrated acidity. The finish is long and lingering with hints of spice, tobacco, and anise. This is a beautifully balanced and harmonious wine that will develop complexity with aging.

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.
