Mogador 2005 Priorat (Spain)

Purple/red.

Vivid black and blueberry coulis, deep earth, oak nut - pure and stupidly deep aromatics. Never had a Mogador like this.

Deep, sweet black raspberry entry, with other aromatic notes providing flavor shavings. "Mineral" struture shuts down front and side teeth. Time will tell ... but this has all the right stuff.

Day 4 - Blueberry pastry, brown sugar aromatics. Still primary rasp/blueberry action in the mouth, with earth and oak spice in the background. Huge teethcoating "minerality" on the finish. Need a time machine - what will this be like in 10 years? Will it actually be "better"?

$75
