Description
Despite having more structure and tannin than the top vintages of this cuvee, the 1993 La Mordoree has turned out to be among the finest wines from the northern Rhone in this dreadful vintage. It possesses an impressive dark ruby/purple color, a powerful, provocative nose of Asian spices, toasty oak, and plenty of black fruits. Medium- to full-bodied and tannic, with a fruity mid-palate, this wine is approachable, but it will benefit from another 2-4 years of cellaring; it should keep for 15 years.

Tasting note
2008年莎普蒂爾摩多雷干紅葡萄酒，是一款兼具優雅與結構的佳釀。酒精度12.5%，這款酒既大膽又精緻。其呈現深紅色澤，香氣中帶有覆盆子、紫羅蘭的微妙暗示，以及香料的交響，黑橄欖和迷迭香的點綴更添層次。口感豐滿，結構良好，成熟的紅果味與新鮮感完美平衡。經橡木桶陳年，使得單寧柔和、光滑，尾韻和諧。正值最佳飲用期，與烤羊排或紅酒燉牛肉等濃郁菜餚搭配最佳。醒酒一小時，方能充分體會其複雜性。
The 2008 M. Chapoutier Cote Rotie La Mordoree is a symphony of elegance and structure. With an alcohol content of 12.5%, this wine is both bold and refined. It presents a deep red hue and a bouquet that sings with raspberry, a hint of violet, and a medley of spices, complemented by a touch of black olive and rosemary. The palate is graced with an ample and well-structured body, balancing ripe red fruits with a fresh vibrancy. Matured in oak casks, this wine has developed soft, polished tannins that lead to a harmonious finish. Perfectly entering its drinking window, it pairs wonderfully with robust dishes such as grilled lamb chops or beef bourguignon. Decant for an hour to fully appreciate its complexity.
