Gramona’s history is long and storied, and the property has been a quality reference point in the zone for decades. As far back as 1816 a member of the family has been making wine in Penedes. Today, Gramona is one of the few remaining family-owned estates in the region, with many having been bought by large companies. Gramona is located in the Penedes region of Spain just 45 minutes from Barcelona along Spain's Mediterranean coast. The Climate in Penedes is mild and warm, benefiting mostly from a Mediterranean influence. However, as the differences in elevation are quite dramatic (with some vines at over 700 meters), there are many microclimates in the zone.

The expedition liqueur and its magnificent integration provide smoothness and elegance. A sparkling wine to accompany the sweetest moments. It is aged for 30 months, a long period of time, which is unusual in this type of sparkling wine expressly designed to accompany dessert. This makes it the longest aged sweet sparkling wine on the market.

Tasting Notes

Intense straw yellow with golden highlights. On the nose, deep and intense. Thousands of different floral notes. Fruit compote, quince, and dried apricots. A hint of liquorice and faded flowers lingers in the background. Very pronounced fresh bread aromas mingle with sherry-like aromas from the “expedition liqueur”. On the palate, deliciously sweet on entry. Very smooth, full, creamy carbon dioxide, with a pleasant and distinct sweet finish.

Food Pairing

This sparkling wine is ideal with exquisite desserts and is one of the only sweet sparkling wines to be made from very fine wines. Aged for 30 months, it allows sweet wine lovers to enjoy the softness and sweetness of a sparkling without foregoing elegance and the finest production process.
