Pagodel Vicario Monagos – Syrah 2007 – Vino de la Tierra de Castilla

The nose is aromatic, fresh, fine and relatively elegant. It reveals notes of cassis, blackberry, redcurrant, truffles and fine notes of red fruit (in the background) associated with discreet notes of spice, cigar box, minerality and dried flowers. The palate is fruity, gourmande, elegant, mineral, well-balanced, well structured and offers a beautiful definition, a nice volume, roundness, juiciness, fat, suavity and an acid frame (in the background). On the palate this wine expresses notes of blackberry, red cherry, fig and small notes of juicy strawberry associated with a hint of blueberry, fine notes of spice, cigar box, cardamom as well as a discreet note of Zan and violet flowers. Tannins are fine and very slightly firm. Good length.
