COMPOSITION: 100% Granacha (Granache)
TASTING NOTES:
"An impressive effort reminiscent of a hypothetical blend of a high class souther Rhone and an elegant, complex Burgundian grand cru Cote d'Or, the medium to full bodied 2003 Hisenda Miret Garnatxa exhibits a deep ruby hue along with a pure, seductive aromatic display of flowers, black cherries, and a notion of wood. Its purity of fruit, background minerality, and overall balance are admirable. While it may not make "old bones" it will offer beautiful drinking over the next 7-8 years." Rated 90 Points

Deep cherry red. Aromas of scrubland, broom, cocoa, crystallized fruit, fruit cake, liquorice and lactic notes. A sweet, flavorful palate of medium structure, balsamic and typical of the variety, with sweet tannins. Very aromatic, with a long, suggestive finish.
