Review:

Coming from this brilliant estate located in Tavel, the 2023 Châteauneuf Du Pape La Dame Voyageuse is based on 90% Grenache with 4% each Syrah and Mourvèdre and the balance Vaccarèse and Counoise, aged 10 months in 15% new French oak and 85% used barrels. Deeper ruby-hued, with a pure, elegant perfume of ripe red and black cherries, sappy garrigue, Provençal spice, and pepper, it's medium-bodied and has a pure, layered, elegant mouthfeel, ultra-fine tannins, and a great finish. It's already impossible to resist and I see no reason to delay gratification. Drink 2025-2035.

The 2023 Châteauneuf-du-Pape La Dame Voyageuse presents vivid orange rind, ripe raspberry, forest strawberry and licorice aromatics. Concentrated and refined, the 2023 is a stellar follow-up to the enticing 2022 I tasted last year, bringing it home with structure and finesse on the persistent close. - Nicolas GREINACHER

Sourced from vines rooted in the sector of Cabrières, in the northern part of the appellation, the 2023 Chateauneuf du Pape La Dame Voyageuse is excellent, offering up aromas of rose, lavender, dark cherries, iris and lilac intertwined with fresh mint notes. Medium- to full-bodied, satiny and layered, it's fresh and racy, with good energy for a cuvée that can sometimes be very rich, concluding with a long, gently tannic finish. Vinified in equal parts concrete tanks and stainless steel, this blend of 90% Grenache Noir, 4% Syrah, 4% Mourvèdre, 1% Vaccarese and 1% Counoise was matured for 12 months in used barrels.

The Mordoree Estate

This is arguably the top estate in our Portfolio. Domaine de la Mordoree (woodcock), located in the town of Tavel, in the Southern Rhone Valley, is the most consistent producer of top quality wine in my entire selection. In 1986, the brothers Christophe and Fabrice Delorme decided to dedicate themselves to their passion for wine. They started their own estate with the objective to produce the best wines in each appellation while preserving the environment

The Mordoree Vineyard

The vineyard consists of 55 hectares (135 acres), on 38 different parcels, which provide with a rich, wide range of soils and climates. The soil is a mix of clay, chalk and sand with pebble stones. The improvements at the Domaine have been incredible: new pneumatic presses, new stainless steel vats, new destemmer, new vinification and aging plant, and aging in oak barrels for the top wines. All the grapes are raised by culture raisonnée which is very close to organic viticulture (intervention in the vineyard only when necessary). The yield is reduced in the vineyard by ébourgeonnage (de budding in spring) and vendanges vertes in summer (green harvesting). Oak aging for the top wines in special barrels like “jupille” for 10 months. No expense is spared at this Domaine to achieve quality.
