"The Châteauneuf du Pape La Dame Voyageuse 2021 is a considerable success, given the difficulties of the vintage. It's 90% Grenache, but its fruit profile is perhaps a little redder than usual, with notes of cherry, raspberry and strawberry. It's medium to full-bodied, taut and crisp, but with silky tannins on the finish." (Wine Advocate 2023). A great Châteauneuf!

Rated wine 93/100
Domaine rated (guide 2024) 4*Stars (Top-quality producers, the glories of French winegrowing)
About the domain :
The domaine offers expressive wines from the finest crus of the Vaucluse and Gard regions. Everything is done with the utmost respect for the terroirs, with the determination to produce wines worthy of their potential. Madeleine Delorme, accompanied by her daughter Ambre, carry on with great care and determination in the spirit of excellence that is the hallmark of the domaine and this winegrowing family. A superb range of saline, fleshy whites and deep, delicate reds, driven by thirst-quenching tension and balance. The domaine's style is increasingly racy and precise. The fourth star is fast approaching.

About the wine:
On the nose, this cuvée evokes cloves and thyme. Full-bodied and fleshy on the palate, it reveals luscious burlat cherry fruit, enveloped by firm, sappy tannins that stretch out on the finish and promise great sensations after a few years in the cellar.
About the domain :
Created in 1986 by Francis Delorme and his son Christophe, the 58-hectare estate (certified organic and biodynamic) is spread over 38 parcels and eight communes. Following Christophe's untimely death in 2015, his wife Madeleine and their daughter Ambre took over the reins of the estate. A firm believer in low yields, the Delorme family is equally at home with tavel, lirac, châteauneuf-du-pape and "simple" côtes-du-rhône. Not to be missed.
