Try these Similar In Stock Wines
Mordoree Tavel Rose Reine des Bois is made from 60% Grenache, 15% Clairette, 10% Syrah, 10% Cinsault, 5% Bourboulenc (biodynamically farmed on a rocky/sandy plateau over clay).
This wine comes from a parcel planted on a pebbled soil covered with stones, whose geology is typical of the grands crus from the Rhone Valley (a base made of marine molasse from the Miocene period covered with an alpine diluvium from the Villafranchian period). 100 % destemming, cold maceration during 48 h., pneumatic pressing, fermentation at 18° C.
To pair with: roasted and or spicy chicken, duck, goose, fish soup, white meat, seafood and a lot of fishes (tuna, John Dorry, red mulet, etc...).Quite all Asian cuisine. Dishes with garlic, dishes with tomatoes.
In the glass the wine is deeply colored pink, almost orange/salmon. Complex aromas of white flowers, raspberry, pomegranate, strawberry, minerals, and citrus rise from the glass. Palate is full-bodied and voluptuous yet retains elegance while delivering great fruit intensity balanced by minerals and citrus. Light tannins appear mid-palate and carry through to the finish, giving it serious structure. Fresh, complex, and very long on the finish. Overall, powerful, textured, and food-driven — a “serious” Tavel that can age 1–5 years. Best enjoyed from June/July 2026 onward.
Review:
The 2025 Tavel La Reine des Bois is a stunning effort, displaying a more perfumed and ethereal profile than its sibling cuvée, La Dame Rousse. Sourced from old vines rooted in sandy soils and galets roulés on the plateau de Vallongue, it unfurls from the glass with aromas of red berries, pomegranate, grapefruit and rose petals mingled with a delicate minty note. Full-bodied, dense and concentrated, it's layered and seamless, built around a fleshy core of ripe fruit framed by a fine, precise tannic structure. It's a serious, vinous rosé with genuine aging potential.

Review:
"Moving to the 2019s from bottle, the Grenache-heavy 2019 Châteauneuf Du Pape La Dame Voyageuse offers a beautiful array of both red and black fruits as well as classic Provençal notes of lavender, peppery garrigue, and flowers. Rich, medium to full-bodied, and beautifully textured on the palate, this is another terrific vintage for this cuvée, which remains an incredible value in the market today. It will drink nicely for 10-12 years if stored correctly."

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.
-Jeb Dunnuck 93 Points
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
-Vinous 91 Points
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.

Domaine de La Mordoree Cotes du Rhone Rosé is produced from organically and biodynamically farmed vineyards.

It is round, fresh and well-balanced in the mouth, with a long finish.
Food pairing: cold meats and delicatessen, fowl, white meats, grilled lamb with Provence herbs, fish soup, fried fish, pastas, pizzas and all Asian dishes.
a Plume du Peintre - "feather of the painter" - wines (Lirac, Chateauneuf-du-Pape and Tavel) are only made in select years representing outstanding quality.
Deep ruby red, opaque. Aromas of red fruits, mocha, touches of leather, black truffles and coffee. Fat, very concentrated and full flavored, with an infinitely long liquoriced and fruity finish.
Pairs well with red meats, sauce dishes, game animals (woodcock, wild boar) and semi mature cheeses.
Review:
Lastly, and a tiny production cuvée based on 100% Grenache brought up in new barrels, the 2019 Châteauneuf Du Pape La Plume Du Peintre reveals a saturated, almost inky purple color as well as a mammoth-sized bouquet of blackcurrants, bloody meats, lead pencil, tobacco, chocolate, and crushed stone. A monster of a wine in every way, it nevertheless has notable purity, a full-bodied, layered, seamless texture, no hard edges, and a thrilling finish that offers more and more minerality with time in the glass. You don't see wines like this often today, but this is a singular, heavenly Grenache that's going to need 4-5 years of bottle age and live for 30-40 years if stored correctly given its concentration, structure, and purity. Hats off to the team at Domaine de la Mordorée for continuing to push the envelope and making incredibly singular wines!
-Jeb Dunnuck 98 Points
Lovely nose of very ripe damson fruit and coffee bean oak. Surprisingly only medium-bodied for Châteauneuf, but so intense and concentrated, really vibrant and energetic. Tannins are fine, quite discreet but integral. Acidity is low but the freshness makes it feel balanced, and there's a lovely sense of finesse and a gathered, silk-rope finish. The oak is very well judged, it adds complexity, structure and length. Absolutely lovely wine; such class and will age brilliantly, and you don't sense the alcohol. You can drink young, and it will impress, but I would start from 2027. 2,300 bottles made. Old vines from La Crau, destemmed grapes.
-Matt Walls 97 Points
After the inaugural 2003 and 2005, the 2019 is the third showing of the Châteauneuf-du-Pape La Plume du Peintre. A single-varietal Grenache from the La Crau lieu-dit, it saw no new oak during élevage. Dark and brooding, it unwinds with explosive black fruits, crushed rocks, melted licorice and dried violets. Flamboyant to the core, the 2019 is clearly aimed at drinkers looking for power and concentration rather than elegance and delicacy. Grippy tannins provide notable structure. I recommend not touching this elixir prior to 2030. After that, it will deliver for at least a decade. Production totaled only 2,000 bottles.

Review:
Perfumed notes of fresh boysenberry and black cherry are lifted by a cutting mineral edge in this rosé. Black fruit flavors are intensely ripe and penetrating, accented by shavings of black pepper and a firm, fine-grained grip of tannins. This solidly structured, thrilling wine should improve through 2023.

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.

Domaine Nico le Paradis Pinot Noir is made from 100 percent Pinot Noir.
The cool climate vineyard that belongs to Laura and her sister Adrianna Catena feels like paradise itself to Laura. It is lined by trees and fruit orchards, with majestic views of the Andes. Inside the 12 Hectare vineyard, there is a little house with two tiny bedrooms and a kitchen, where Laura dreams of spending a whole month reading books-Laura's version of paradise. The little house is affectionately named Chateau Laura. About the Vineyard The tiny parcel where Le Paradis is grown was planted in 2011 with Dijon 667 Clones over two acres. Wine Production The grapes from this small parcel were elaborated in 15 separate microvinifications.

Review:
A perfumed and floral wine with hints of fresh tea and strawberries....
-James Suckling 94 Points
Adelsheim is a Willamette Valley pioneer, founded in 1971 and long a standard-bearer for Oregon Chardonnay and Pinot Noir. Staking Claim is its flagship Chardonnay — crisp, citrus-driven and energetic, made in a fresh, food-friendly style.
Review:
A great wine made in a tough vintage, the 2020 ‘Staking Claim’ Chardonnay was entirely sourced from the Chehalem Mountain AVA. Beautifully textured, this comes off very clean with fresh cut lime, vanilla cream, buttered French bread and shades of banana on the palate. Don’t serve too cold to take in the outstanding range of flavors.
