Ideally
located at the crossroads of Provence and Languedoc, the Domaine
de la Mordorée produces some of the greatest vintages
of the Rhone Valley : Châteauneuf du Pape, Lirac, Tavel.
Our
philosophy has always been to produce the greatest wines possible.
To achieve this goal we have selected the best parcels of land, the
highest grade grapes and developed environmental friendly wine growing
methods. The vinification and maturation of our wines combine both
tradition and modernity.
The
fruits of our efforts were quickly rewarded with prizes, in the Paris
Agricultural Fair as well as other fairs where we have won over 160
medals since 1985. The specialized press and the greatest wine reviewers,
like the Revue du Vin de France, Wine Spectator, or Parker have acknowledged
and praised the quality of our wines.
The
Mediterranean area granted us a climate and beauty which are exceptionally
favourable to tourism. The whole environment appeals to discovering
a unique wealth of landscapes and culture : Avignon, Arles, Nîmes,
the Camargue, the Pont du Gard, the Luberon, and the Cevennes are
minutes away, offering easy and boundless access to gastronomy, culture,
nature or architectural heritage.
This
outstanding environment naturally inspired us for the name of our
Domaine : the Mordorée is the poetic
nickname used locally for the woodcock that flies over our lands during
its migrations.
