Tasting note
Colour & Appearance
Luminous straw yellow with delicate, pale highlights. The perlage presents itself calm and uniform with a lively mousse.
Nose
Very focused and characterised by dry herbal spice: dried wildflowers, straw, chervil, marjoram and sage meet a distinct mineral saltiness. Citrus notes of kaffir lime, bergamot and lemon zest lend freshness, underpinned by pale stone fruit such as green pear and white peach. The extended lees ageing reveals itself subtly with hints of fine salted biscuits.
Palate
On the palate, the cool aromatics continue seamlessly. The wine impresses with crystalline finesse, energetic drive and a vibrant structure. The texture remains effortlessly nimble and refreshing, without ever losing depth.
Finish
In the long finish, crumbly yeast pastries, citrus freshness and a subtle, salty chalkiness combine to form a stylish finale.
Terroir & Origin
The grapes originate from Penedès, around Sant Sadurní d’Anoia. The soils, shaped by limestone and fossil deposits, are unmistakably reflected in the sparkling wine’s fine minerality.
Grape Variety & Vinification
A master blend of 58% Xarel·lo, 33% Macabeu, 5% Parellada and 4% Chardonnay, vinified separately. Following traditional bottle fermentation, the wine matures for an impressive 50 months on the lees, giving it its inner poise and balance.
Food Pairings
Perfect as a sophisticated aperitif or alongside oysters, amberjack sashimi, light tapas, as well as delicately spiced fish dishes.
Key Features
With over four years of lees ageing, Gramona demonstrates the remarkable depth and longevity achievable in Penedès sparkling winemaking – driven by radical, organic vineyard management.
