Gramona, a family winery located in the region of Barcelona, lies at the foot of the Montserrat mountain range, on the shores of the Mediterranean, in the heart of the Penedès denomination of origin.
For more than 125 years our family has been making Cavas – very unique and highly-appreciated sparkling wines – and wines with character, which express both the original personality of our winery and the traits of the special soils that nurture our wines.
As a company with a longstanding tradition, we respect our legacy and defend a certain idea of Cava and great ambition for the wines of the Penedès.
We leverage our exceptional soil and experience in the traditional or "Champenois" method to achieve the most elegant Largas Crianzas, the ultimate aim of the search for a Great Cava.
In our wines we seek the ultimate expression of a soil of exceptional capacity and variation, as well as to uphold the tradition of the wines of our land. Moreover, we are famous for leading the search for know-how to improve work in the vineyard and in the cellar.
We strive to respect individuality and freedom of ideas, shying away from trends or fashions, maintaining our commitment to our social and cultural setting. All with the hallmark of sobriety, discretion and the utmost elegance. These are the values and convictions that drive the Gramona brand every day.
VI DE GLAS GEWÜRZTRAMINER
Taking his inspiration from the Eiswein (ice wines), made by the freezing of grapes of the wine, later cold pressing and fermentation at low temperatures, Jaume Gramona sought to produce wine of similar characteristics with grapes from a vineyard where it does not freeze during the harvest months.
Following a latest harvest, the only natural way to concentrate this must even futher is by this partial freezing, witch enables full oenological control of the process: supraextraction and cryoextraction in a cold chamber.
To do so, a yeast with an accentuated plasmolysis effect, expecially selected by the University of Burdeaux, is used. The result its a highly concentrated, fruited wine that is at one sweet and tart, endowing it with fluidity and character, aging capacity and fascinating possibilities for inbottle evolution.
