The biodynamic Cava house Gramona remains a leader in the category with a portfolio that maximizes tradition and innovation. Where else in Catalonia can you taste a cryoextracted Xarello "ice" wine? III Lustros is a benchmark bottling for Spanish sparklers. Flavors of green olive skin, petrol, fresh pear, and white rose emerge from the fine, caressing mouse. Sensual yet sharp, it has a laser-like precision that is undeniably Cava.

What a way to start our Saturday lunch in Madrid! Such finesse, with hints of mandarin orange and pear skins. Gramona is da bomb.

I drink this Cava to memorize my youngest uncle Frans who passed away last week in Spain. My parents went on holiday to Spain in the seventies; where I got caught with passion for wine. Rest In Peace.

Degorgement in 2017. Crisp palat, fresh, almond and wer stone in the bouquet. Very good ending.

Really nice on the nose but a little tight. Let it breathe for a while. That said, this is a great example of what cava can be but rarely is.

Rather simple. Lacks the bitterness and earthiness of a CAVA
