Domaine de la Mordorée - Tavel La Dame Rousse rosé 2023

Bettane & Desseauve

About the domain :

The domaine offers expressive wines from the finest crus of the Vaucluse and Gard regions. Everything is done with the utmost respect for the terroirs, with the determination to produce wines worthy of their potential. Madeleine Delorme, accompanied by her daughter Ambre, carry on with great care and determination in the spirit of excellence that is the hallmark of the domaine and this winegrowing family. A superb range of saline, fleshy whites and deep, delicate reds, driven by thirst-quenching tension and balance. The domaine's style is increasingly racy and precise. The fourth star is fast approaching.

About the domain :

Created in 1986 by Francis Delorme and his son Christophe, the 58-hectare estate (certified organic and biodynamic) is spread over 38 parcels and eight communes. Following Christophe's untimely death in 2015, his wife Madeleine and their daughter Ambre took over the reins of the estate. A firm believer in low yields, the Delorme family is equally at home with tavel, lirac, châteauneuf-du-pape and "simple" côtes-du-rhône. Not to be missed.

About the wine:

More pure raspberry, mentholated flowers and chalky minerality define the aromas of Tavel La Dame Rousse 2023, and this beauty is medium to full-bodied, with a pure, structured and seamless palate, impeccable overall balance and an excellent finish. The blend is 60% Grenache, 15% Cinsault and Syrah, and the rest Clairette, from a mix of three terroirs: pebbles, limestone and sand.
