The 2007 Cami de Cormes is sourced from two parcels of old vine Samso aged for 14 months in three-year-old French oak. It has a lovely, very natural bouquet with crisp blackberries, bilberry and oyster shell that is crisp and precise. The palate is medium-bodied with a sweet entry of marmalade and dark cherry fruit that segue into a well-defined, citrus fresh finish with orange rind and a touch of dried blood. This is a very natural, engrossingly pure Carinena.
Roig Parals was founded in 2005. They own 11 hectares of vine – two plots with vines up to 116 years old. Tasting inside the winery, conditions did appear rather cramped, but fortunately a new, more spacious facility is being built.
