Country: France
Grapes: Grenache, Syrah, Mourvèdre, Counoise, Vaccarèse
Tasting profile
Structure: full-bodied, medium tannin, medium acidity, dry
La Dame Voyageuse is a Châteauneuf-du-Pape from Domaine de la Mordorée, the Delorme family's organically farmed estate in the southern Rhône. It is about 90% Grenache from old vines, with small amounts of Syrah, Mourvèdre, Vaccarèse and Counoise. Most of it is raised in stainless steel and a small share in used oak, which keeps the fruit in front. The estate makes it as the more approachable partner to its long-ageing La Reine des Bois. Expect kirsch and red berries with garrigue, pepper and liquorice on a generous, warm frame, with tannins that are ripe rather than severe.
Serving: Serve at 16–18 °C.

Where it comes from
Rhône Valley, France
Rhône Valley (Vallée du Rhône) follows the Rhône river through southeastern France and splits into two distinct halves with very different personalities.
Grenache
Grenache is a red grape that originated in the Aragón region of Spain, where it is called Garnacha, and it is widely grown across the Mediterranean.
Syrah
Syrah is a red grape from the Northern Rhône in France, responsible for some of the world's most dramatic, savoury reds.
Mourvèdre
Mourvèdre is a red grape of Spanish origin, at home around Valencia and Murcia, where it is called Monastrell.
Counoise
Counoise is a red grape of the southern Rhône in France, best known as a supporting player in blends such as Châteauneuf-du-Pape rather than as a solo star.
