The 2013 Sauvignon Blanc fermented in stainless steel after being pressed without destemming and the wine matured in 300-liter French oak barrels (one third new, one third second use and one third, third use) in contact with the lees which were periodically stirred. The aromas are more about the lees and the barrel than the variety, with smoky and yeasty notes and a core of white and green fruit. The palate is medium-bodied, with creamy flavors and good acidity, again not terribly expressive of the grape. 8,000 bottles produced.

The 2012 Sauvignon Blanc has a subtle nose of ripe yellow fruit, plums, nectarine and a hint of gooseberries, more noticeably Sauvignon by the liveliness in the palate which is medium-bodied, with sharp acidity and good weight of fruit. It’s not so easy to recognize as a Sauvignon. Drink now. Gramona does not only produce Cava, they also have a full range of still wines from Penedes.
