Viticulture

Gramona, with a rich history, practices long lees aging, a tradition from the Spanish Civil War era. Their biodynamic approach integrates animals for soil balance. The estate, hailed for top Spanish Sparkling Wines, uses artisan methods, hand-riddling, and hand-disgorging with more than 5 years of lees aging, all aged on cork for slowed oxidation.

Vinification

Aged 'sur lattes' for 52 months, this sparkling blend of Xarel∙lo, Macabeo, Chardonnay, and Parellada is meticulously crafted by Gramona. With Demeter-certified* organic fruit from 13 plots, handpicked, sorted, and pressed with precision, it carries a classic, elegant signature from Gramona's century-old solera. *Demeter, the strictest organic certification.

Food Match

Gramona Imperial is particularly versatile and can be enjoyed throughout the meal, from the ‘aperitif’ through to the ‘digestif’.
