Tasting note

Domaine de la Mordorée's 2000 Cuvee La Reine des Bois should show Grenache aromas of dried raspberry, black cherry and herbs, with a savory note. Châteauneuf-du-Pape fruit is expected to feel rounded and mature, mellow tannins and gentle acidity shaping the palate. The projected range ended in 2024, leaving the wine beyond its expected horizon. If the bottle remains sound, expect a quiet finish of dried berry, spice and earth.
