The 2007 Pla del Moli is an equal blend of Merlot and Cabernet Sauvignon aged for 16 months in French oak barriques (second and third fill.) It has a light, rather herbaceous bouquet with light earthy, forest floor aromas. The palate is medium-bodied with a sweet entry of liquorice and dark plum that leads to a slightly attenuated, tannic finish that needs more flesh on its bones.
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.
