Domaine de la Mordorée Chateauneuf-du-Pape Cuvee de "La Reine des Bois"

Domaine de la Mordorée's Cuvée de La Reine des Bois is a classic Châteauneuf-du-Pape expression built on the traditional Rhône South blend of Grenache, Syrah, Mourvèdre, Counoise, and Vaccarèse. The 2021 vintage delivers a full-bodied wine with medium acidity and medium-high tannins, anchored by dark cherry and blackberry fruit with supporting notes of garrigue, black pepper, and mineral earth. Secondary oak and spice complexity emerge mid-palate, while tertiary leather and dried-fruit notes suggest aging potential. A food-friendly, structured wine suited to grilled meats, lamb, and slow-braised dishes.
