Catalan Union: Gramona Cuvée Aliances Brut 2021
Tasting Notes
Pale white‑gold with steely edges and ultra‑fine mousse. Aromas swirl with peach, apricot, golden apple, lemon peel, meadow flowers, breadcrumbs and almond, edged by fennel and bay‑leaf herb nuance. On the palate: creamy texture with lively satsuma zest, crisp apple acidity and citrus return. Finishes long, slightly bitter‑citrus edge with floral and pastry echoes.
Meet the Winemaker
Gramona is a Catalan dynasty rooted in Penedès since 1881 and founding member of Corpinnat. The “Aliances” cuvée is a collaboration among biodynamic growers led by Gramona’s stewardship—harvested by hand, vinified organically on estate, and aged deep underground in silence to craft serious fizz with integrity.
