Founded in 1986 by Francis Delorme and his son Christophe in Tavel, Domaine de la Mordorée has established itself as one of the leading estates of the Southern Rhône Valley. Spanning 42 hectares across 38 plots in 8 communes, the estate produces wines under the Tavel, Châteauneuf-du-Pape, Lirac, Côtes du Rhône and Condrieu appellations. Certified organic since 2013 and Demeter biodynamic since 2020, the vineyard gives birth to cuvées with poetic names inspired by the woodcock — La Reine des Bois, La Dame Rousse, La Dame Voyageuse — which embody the singularity of Rhône terroirs with power and finesse.

L'histoire du domaine

Domaine de la Mordorée was born in 1986, when Francis Delorme, who ran a textile company with two hundred employees in Bagnols-sur-Cèze, decided to change his life completely and devote himself to the vine. Together with his son Christophe, he built cellar and winery at the heart of the family estate in Tavel, where the family already owned a dozen hectares of vines. A new life began, guided by a clear ambition: to produce wines of character with absolute respect for nature. In 1989, the estate expanded with the acquisition of parcels in Châteauneuf-du-Pape on the prestigious plateau de La Crau — rolled pebbles and Rhône sands on blue clay — where the oldest vines date from 1910. In 1992, further parcels were acquired in Condrieu on an abandoned hillside. Over the years, the estate grew to around fifty hectares and established itself as a benchmark. In 2015, Christophe Delorme passed away unexpectedly at the age of 52, leaving behind a universally acclaimed viticultural legacy. Since 2016, Madeleine and their daughter Ambre have continued the work with the same rigour and passion.

Le terroir

Located in Tavel, at the crossroads of Provence and Languedoc, the Domaine de la Mordorée vineyard spans 42 hectares across 38 parcels in 8 communes in the Southern Rhône Valley. This mosaic of terroirs, inherited from millions of years of tectonic movements, glacial flows and sea coverage, offers remarkable geological diversity: rolled pebbles on sandy-clay soils in Tavel and Châteauneuf-du-Pape, Villafranchian terraces of the Vallongue plateau, soils rich in red silica in Lirac, granitic terraces in Condrieu. The estate has chosen a demanding and respectful viticulture: conversion to organic farming in 2010, certification obtained in 2013, then transition to biodynamics with Demeter certification in 2020. Manual harvesting across the entire vineyard, rigorous grape sorting, natural grass cover, drastic yield limitation, more than a hundred maturity checks before and during harvest — practices that multiply costs by two or three but guarantee impeccable quality. The estate has also held HVE Level 3 certification since 2019.

Les vins

The Domaine de la Mordorée range covers the great appellations of the Southern Rhône Valley with remarkable stylistic breadth. In red, the estate excels with southern varieties — Grenache, Syrah, Mourvèdre, Counoise, Vaccarèse, Cinsault — giving birth to emblematic cuvées: La Remise in Côtes du Rhône, La Dame Rousse and La Reine des Bois in Tavel, Lirac and Châteauneuf-du-Pape, La Dame Voyageuse in Châteauneuf-du-Pape (90% Grenache, supple and elegant), and in exceptional vintages, La Plume du Peintre in Lirac, a confidential cuvée of rare density. In white, the estate produces precise and taut cuvées based on Viognier (Condrieu Christophe Delorme), Grenache Blanc, Roussanne, Marsanne, Clairette and Bourboulenc. Tavel, France's only appellation exclusively dedicated to rosé, represents the estate's historic flagship with La Dame Rousse. The house style favours concentration, fruit density and perfectly integrated tannins, with wines that drink beautifully young while offering considerable ageing potential.

Le vigneron

In thirty years, Christophe Delorme raised Domaine de la Mordorée to the level of the greatest. A perfectionist, passionate and visionary winemaker, he devoted his life to respecting the terroir and producing the finest wines possible. "Out of love for the land," he said, convinced that the way a result is achieved matters as much as the result itself. He was one of the pioneers of organic viticulture in the region, beginning conversion in 2010. "My greatest happiness in autumn is to see the earthworms working. The terroir is alive," he told Guide Hachette. His Reine des Bois 2001 received Robert Parker's perfect score of 100/100, described as a "legend of modern times." Christophe passed away unexpectedly in 2015, leaving an indelible mark. Since 2016, Madeleine and their daughter Ambre have been running the estate with the team trained by Christophe, continuing his work with passion and determination, faithful to the objective he set himself: to produce wines that faithfully reflect the singularity of each terroir.
