Domaine de la Mordoree, Lirac, La Reine des Bois Blanc

This has typical slightly waxy, brassy, grapefruit and honeydew notes of Southern Rhone whites, but it also carries with it a certain lightness, minerality and acid lift in the palate that sets it apart from the crowd.

Wine Education Service - Southern Rhône (Imperial College) : Refreshing fruity nose, very inviting, ripe fruit. Excellent balance, fruity with a hint of apricot in the mid palate along with some minerality, good length.

WES - Southern Rhône (Imperial College London) : Soft straw colour. C+B. Ripe fruit, sweet peach, a hint of minerality and a sprinkling of white pepper. Dry, vibrant. More stone fruit with full ripe peaches and good acidity.

Nose: Floral spice, fruity cinnamon minerality, hint of papaya, faint caramel . Overall, somewhat subdued. Most scents took some digging and analyzing and became significantly more discernible after the wine had been open an hour or two. Palate: Tangy honey yogurt with a spritz of lime. Melon undertones, limestone and mineral bitterness. Very citrus zest tasting, definitely lime like. Overall: Some viscosity, decent body. Ok finish, if not overlong. Good acidity. Definitely more on the mineral and bitter side, than …

Pear yellow colour; round; nice

Light/bleached yellow; nose of a little bit of honey / butter / slightly spiced; soft rounded taste, perhaps lacking some aftertaste. A good everyday wine.
