PRODUCT INFORMATION

Domaine de la Mordorée is a family estate, created in 1986 by Francis DELORME and Christophe, the domaine brings together a 57-hectare vineyard divided into 38 plots spread over 8 communes. Is located in the south of France and also in the south of the Rhone Valley.

In 30 years, Christophe Delorme has raised the Domaine de la Mordorée to the level of the greatest. By the "love of the land", this perfectionist, passionate and visionary winemaker has chosen to respect the terroir. The estate is organic in its entirety, with a biodynamic approach in the land and cellar. The harvest is manual on the entire vineyard.

Madeleine and her daughter Ambre have been pursuing the work initiated by Christophe with the team he formed. They chose to preserve the company to which he devoted himself body and soul, in the respect of the main objective: to produce the best possible wines.

Ideally located at the crossroads of Provence and Languedoc, the Domaine de la Mordorée produces some of the greatest vintages of the Rhone Valley : Châteauneuf du Pape, Lirac, Tavel, Côtes du rhône and Condrieu.

CRITIC REVIEWS
Robert Parker91-93/100

Not yet bottled at the time of my visit, but the 2017 Lirac La Reine des Bois was blended. It's 40% Syrah and 30% each Grenache and Mourvèdre, with 10% aged in barriques and the rest kept in tank. There is a slight cedary note and hints of baking spices, but the focus is on layers of plush, ripe fruit. Cherries—both red and black—mark the full-bodied, velvety-textured palate, lingering on the long finish. Tasted twice (once blind), with consistent notes. Joe Czerwinski - 01/11/2019
