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.

“A lovely, concentrated wine full of lively sweet berry fruits – blackcurrant, black cherry, damson and plum with a sumptuous texture and spicy, dry finish. It’s bright and polished and very easy to drink. Made with organically grown Syrah and Grenache grapes from the estate’s 15ha of top vineyard holdings in Lirac.”
