The 2006 Gran Reserva Brut Imperial is predominantly Xarel-lo with 20% Chardonnay. It offers up a slightly more refined bouquet and a crisper, drier, creamier palate than the Brut Gran Cuvee. This surprisingly complex Cava will provide enjoyment over the next 1-2 years.
As my visit in January 2011 made clear, Gramona ranks as one of Cava’s finest producers.
