2007 Clos Mogador Priorat

[TheEngineer]

It was a great time to check in on this wine. It is my first bottle of this and frankly no great rush to open the next one. In fact it was a bit of infanticide but considering the crowd this was opened with, this wine stood up spectacularly well.

Nose, while never shy, develops over time, first it was primary fruits, a bit of barnyardiness, funkiness, spicy and some licorice. On the palate, there is a great density of fruit, spices, very fresh still, tight and not all together entirely but made a good presentation of itself. Great length and good acidity for structure. Lovely and should have bought some more. Only one bottle left so will keep that one well hidden.
