Like the name of the wine, its grapes grow on the ancient Hisenda Miret estate at an altitude of 400 meters in the hills of Penedès. Hisenda Miret is biodynamically cultivated. Only a few thousand bottles of wine are produced to guarantee its premium quality. The wine is fermented well in cool 20 °C steel tanks for 4 weeks and the fermented grape juice is pumped onto the skins three times a day. Finally, the wine matures for five months in two year-old French oak casks.

Producer story

Parés Baltà winery was established back in 1790 and remains a family-owned business to this day. Their wine production is infused with great passion, and the endearing and warm-hearted Cusiné family welcomes all wine enthusiasts to their estate, located just a short distance from Barcelona. The vineyards are situated across five villages, encompassing diverse terrains, valleys, and mountains. This allows for the cultivation of wines in both Mediterranean and continental climates, as well as in their intermediate zones. Some vineyards are nestled within nature reserves, where grapes grow almost magically undisturbed. The vineyards are located on centuries-old terraces, where wild boars, foxes, hares, and eagles are common sights.
