An unusual sweet wine produced with Pinot Noir grapes, the 2011 Gra a Gra, a late harvest, grain selection was picked at 24% potential alcohol then fermented to 13% alcohol leaving 150 grams of residual sugar in the wine. It fermented slow (six weeks) in an oak vat after a cold soak after which the wine matured in oak barrels for seven months. The nose shows some cooked cherries in liqueur and something sweet. The palate is dense and quite sweet, with candied fruit flavors and some cherries in liqueur again. An unusual sweet red. 3,000 bottles produced.

The 2010 Gra a Gra is a sweet red wine produced with Pinot Noir grapes. The nose feels a bit awkward, as it seems to have been aged in oak and then the palate is very sweet (150 grams of sugar) with notes of strawberry lollipop, which could provide a fun contrast with some chocolate desserts. I’d opt for drinking this in the short term. Drink now. Gramona does not only produce Cava, they also have a full range of still wines from Penedes.
