Description

The crunchier, crisper of the two Mordorée Rosé wines. Proper dry delicious Rose. Hint of musk, flowers, fresh red fruits, excellent crunch, waft of anise over a crunchy mid palate. Excellent length and depth, deceptive in it’s complexity with a cleansing every so slightly bitter sweep that works incredibly well on the finish. Get’s outlasted by fruit persistence. All comes together nicely just a little time in the glass.

A note on Rosé: Over the years we got to dry Rosé a big tick. Provence Rosé took off and an ocean of fairly insipid light blush gear in fancy bottles hit the market.

About Domaine de la Mordorée

Domaine de la Mordorée was founded 34 years ago by the recently deceased Christophe Delorme whose work is continued by his wife (Madeleine) daughter (Ambre) longtime cellarmaster Rémy Chauvet in concert with two Châteauneuf enologists. These are modern styled Rhône’s farmed bio-dynamically that combine the subtle use of French oak for its top wines. The un-oaked ‘La Dame Rousse’ range deliver some of the greatest QPR wines anywhere in the vinous world. Witness the fine quality of these wines, even in difficult vintages, to grasp their inherent quality. The Lirac and Châteauneuf-du-Pape ‘Cuvée De La Reine Des Bois’ wines are compelling – rich, classy and concentrated. Mordorée is a genuine superstar of modern-day viticultural France.

“The light pink-colored 2018 Côtes Du Rhône La Dame Rousse Rosé is a smoking rosé that offers vibrant notes of white peach, cherries, and white flowers. With plenty of texture, a rounded, mouthfilling style, and yet still incredible freshness and purity, it puts just about every barely colored Provençal rosé out here to shame. It's a gem of a rosé to enjoy over the coming summer months.”
