Grenache is a variety with a Spanish origin (Catalonia and Aragon), and it is the most present grape in the world with 200,000 hectares planted. This figure contrasts with the nearly 160 hectares planted in Pened\u00e8s region.<\/p>\n<p>Regarding Par\u00e9s Balt\u00e0, the Gold Medal obtained by <a href=\"http:\/\/paresbalta.com\/micro-cuvees\/hisenda-miret\/\">Hisenda Miret 2013<\/a>, <em><strong>places us as the only Pened\u00e8s wine that awarded with this distinction <\/strong><\/em>among all the winning wines. With a monovarietal <strong>Red Grenache<\/strong> wine aged for seven months in Allier French oak barrels, it is one of the flagship wines of the cellar. Its grapes come from a vineyard located in <em>Cal Miret<\/em> (St. Mart\u00ed Sarroca) and planted over 30 years ago by Joan Cusin\u00e9 Hill, the pioneer of the Cusin\u00e9 family. He was born in a family of winemakers and opted firmly for the cultivation and the recovery of native varieties. It was in 2003, with the arrival of the two young skilled women, <a href=\"http:\/\/paresbalta.com\/winemaking\/\">Maria Elena Jim\u00e9nez and Marta Casas<\/a>\u00a0that Hisenda Miret was developed.\u00a0With the application of new knowledge to the vineyards and the green harvest, they managed to concentrate Grenache grape color with a structured body with a high capacity of\u00a0aging. Thus, the result is a\u00a0<em>structured red wine, elegant, subtle, with complex aromas dominating the red wild fruits in the nose while leaving hints of spices and hints of toast.<\/em><\/p>\n<p>Hisenda Miret 2013 was also awarded with a <em><strong>Bronze Medal at the International Organic Wine Challenge Mill\u00e9sime Bio,<\/strong><\/em> held last January in Montpellier, France.
