Bodegas Gramona is a winery full of tradition and prestige in the DO Penedes. The Bodega was founded in 1921. All the wines of Gramona are very renowned and of an exceptional class and with a very good price / quality ratio. For that reason we also carry their range.

The La Maca is a new project based on Macabeu grape which comes from 2 small vineyards: 1 hectare planted in 1969 and 1 hectare planted in 1998. All vineyards are biodynamically cultivated.

Harvesting takes place manually with a second selection on the sorting table. The grapes are cooled between 0 and 5 ° and then pressed into whole bunches. Cold maceration in contact with the yeast cells for 2 to 3 weeks. Fermentation on amphorae and larger older barrels so that no influence of the wood is noticeable. The wine will then have 6 months rest in the bottle before it is launched.

The La Maca has a light yellow color in the glass. In the nose a citrus character, lime zest. Pear and white stone fruit, peach, but also some nectarine. Subtle floral touches. Opens with rollers: mango, pineapple, spicy notes. Aftertaste of spicy aromas and a hint of the yeast cells. In the mouth fresh, subtle attack, medium body with a velvety texture. Nice fresh aftertaste. A beautiful mineral fresh elegant white wine and a must for those who are tired of the typical sauvignon blanc wines. RECOMMENDED
