Mordoree Chateauneuf-du-Pape La Reine des Bois is made from 80% Grenache, 10% Mourvdre, and the rest equal parts Syrah and Vaccarse . This premium cuvee - whose name means Queen of the Woods - is from 65-year-old vines, planted on Villafranchian-era terrasses. Yield is 30 hlha.Deep ruby red opaque. Aromas of red fruits change to wooden touches of leather, black truffles and coffee. Fat, concentrated and full flavored with a very long liquoriced and fruity finish. Review: The 2022 Chteauneuf du Pape Cuve De La Reine Des Bois is based on 75% Grenache, 10% each Syrah and 10% Mourvdre, and the rest Counoise and Vaccarse. It's not massive yet just exudes class and elegance, with both red and black fruits that give way to more spice, peppery garrigue, and leather, with classic licorice and black olive notes. Medium to full-bodied, beautifully balanced, and elegant, with silky tannins, this brilliant Chteauneuf du Pape will evolve for two decades.bNumber 36 in Dunnuck's Top 100 and Huge and powerful, but so fresh. This has great driving intensity, with even bigger, more structural tannins than the domaine's other cuve. A rampaging Chteauneuf that will take time to settle, and will always be wild. Long, vibrant and chiselled. An absolute beast. Mordore has been massive but overripe in the past it's still massive but with this vintage the ripeness is more controlled, and it has transformed into something extraordinary. Fermented and aged 80% in stainless steel, the rest in old barrels. - Matt WALLSb- Decanter Magazine (September 17th 2023, Part of Chteauneuf-du-Pape 2022: Report and top-scoring wines), 98
