White dry
Gramona Gessamí Penedès 2025 is one of the most prominent aromatic style wines from the famous Gramona winery. Although Gramona is best known worldwide for its top-class sparkling wines, Gessamí also perfectly reveals their mastery of creating fresh, elegant white wines. The name of the wine comes from the Catalan word gessamí, which means jasmine - a flower whose aroma becomes the calling card of this wine.
The wine is made from Muscat de Frontignan, Muscat d'Alexandrie, Sauvignon Blanc and a small part of Gewürztraminer. Each variety is vinified separately: before fermentation, it is briefly macerated at low temperatures, and fermentation takes place in stainless steel tanks in order to preserve the natural fruitiness and intensity of the aromas.
The aroma reveals notes of jasmine, orange blossom, rose, peach, apricot, pineapple and citrus fruits, complemented by subtle accents of Mediterranean herbs and anise. The wine is soft, silky in texture, yet lively and refreshing – perfectly balanced between aromatics, refreshing acidity and a light hint of fruity sweetness. The aftertaste is long, elegant and floral.
Serve at 6-8 ° C. This is a great aperitif wine, and also goes well with Asian cuisine, sushi, salads, seafood, white fish, mild goat cheeses, poultry and light summer dishes.
Gramona is one of the most prestigious Spanish sparkling wine producers, with over a century of viticultural tradition in the Penedès region of Catalonia. The family winery has become famous for its commitment to quality, ecology and the philosophy of long-aged wines.
Organic vineyards and biodynamic philosophy
Gramona vineyards are cultivated organically and biodynamically, respecting the principles of nature. The family's approach to viticulture is based on a belief in the cycles of the moon and the influence of the universe on the soil and vines.
History and tradition: from 1881 to today
In 1945, Bartomeu and Josep Lluís Gramona began a new era in winemaking - they were the first to establish the concept of long-aged sparkling wines in Spain.
In 1951, the first Gramona III Lustros was created, released in 1961.
In 2021 The Gramona family celebrated 100 years as a sparkling wine producer and 140 years as a grape grower.
Today, the Gramona story is continued by the fifth and sixth generations – Jaume, Roc and Leonard Gramona – following the principles of sustainability and quality.
Traditional method and exceptional quality
Gramona wines are produced using the traditional method (Méthode Traditionnelle), identical to champagne production, and their maturation period ranges from 18 months to even 12 years – more than double the standard Cava requirements.
What makes Gramona sparkling wines stand out?
In addition to the traditional Cava grapes (Xarel·lo, Macabeo, Parellada), they also use Chardonnay, which gives it an elegant and international style.
Taste: aromas of nuts, freshly baked pastries and autolysis (yeast decomposition).
Naturally low in sugar, but with a balanced and delicate acidity.
A new generation of quality: Corpinnat
After a long-standing commitment to improving Cava’s reputation, in 2019 Gramona left the official DO Cava designation of origin and became one of the founding members of the Corpinnat association. Corpinnat means “born in the heart” and represents the highest quality sparkling wines produced exclusively in the Penedès region, following strict organic production and long-term maturation requirements.
