Gramona III Lustros 2014 [Sparkling]
Producer: Gramona
Region: Corpinnat

70% xarel.lo, 30% macabeo, organically/biodynamically grown in the Font de Jui estate. Brut nature, nurtured in bottle (cork closure) for 80 months before manual disgorging.

Clean & elegant with real power & complexity: baker's yeast, pears & lychees, tarragon, dry flowers herbs/grass.
Intense, extra fine persistent creamy bubbles, lovely mouth feel and an interminable finish. Fruit, herbs, fluid acidity, a truly outstanding bottle of bubbly.

My way of paying homage to Xavier Gramona, who passed away recently. He will be missed, his wines live on.
