Mordorée Reine Des Bois Châteauneuf-Du-Pape, 2020

Mordorée Reine des Bois Châteauneuf-du-Pape 2020 is a polished, expressive Rhône red that brings together the power of Grenache with the structure and spice of Mourvèdre and Syrah. From one of the region’s most admired names, it captures the depth and generosity that make Châteauneuf-du-Pape so sought after.

Tasting Notes
In the glass, it typically shows a deep ruby to garnet core with impressive concentration. The nose is generous and complex, offering ripe dark berries, black cherry, plum, garrigue herbs, licorice, and peppery spice, with subtle hints of smoked earth and floral lift. On the palate, expect a rich and layered wine with juicy fruit, fine tannins, and excellent freshness balancing the natural ripeness of the vintage. The finish is long and savory, with mineral and spice nuances that promise strong aging potential; this is a wine that should gain even more harmony and complexity over the next 8-15 years.

Production
Produced in the Rhône’s southern sector, Châteauneuf-du-Pape benefits from sun-drenched vineyards, galet-strewn soils, and the cooling influence of the mistral wind, all of which help preserve balance and freshness. The grapes are typically harvested by hand and vinified with care to preserve purity of fruit, texture, and the character of the terroir, with the final blend shaped by the strengths of Grenache, Mourvèdre, and Syrah.

Food & Serving
This wine is a natural match for roast lamb, beef tenderloin, game birds, duck confit, and slow-cooked Provençal dishes with herbs and olives. Serve at 16-18°C and consider decanting for 1-2 hours, especially when young, to let the wine open fully and soften its tannins.
