Domaine de la Mordoree Chateauneuf-du-Pape Cuvee La Reine des Bois 2020

The Châteauneuf Du Pape La Reine Des Bois 2020 is a bigger, richer, more structured wine, which is to be expected. A blend of 80% Grenache, 10% Mourvèdre and equal parts Syrah and Vaccarèse, its deeper ruby-purple hue is followed by a brilliant perfume of blackberry, black raspberry, ground pepper, violet and new saddle leather. Medium to full-bodied and concentrated, with well-constructed tannins and great overall balance, this is another wine that brilliantly illustrates the style of the vintage. Jeb Dunnuck
