2024 Gramona Penedes Gessami Blanc

Gessamí 2024 shows why Gramona remains one of Penedès’ most respected estates.
The wine blends organically farmed Muscat d’Alexandria, Muscat Blanc à Petits Grains, Sauvignon Blanc, and a touch of Gewürztraminer—varieties that thrive in the region’s warm days, Mediterranean breezes, and chalk-rich soils.
Grapes are harvested at night for freshness, pressed gently, and fermented cool in stainless steel. This protects the wine’s heady floral perfume while keeping the palate crisp and focused. A short rest on fine lees adds a soft, silky feel without any weight.
The result is a white that feels both effortless and expressive: jasmine, orange blossom, and ripe peach glide into citrus zest, melon, and a whisper of mint. Bright acidity keeps the aromatics from turning sweet, finishing clean, dry, and refreshing with a subtle mineral line.
Gessamí is the kind of bottle that disappears quickly—light on its feet, intensely aromatic, and endlessly drinkable.

Nose: Jasmine, orange blossom, and white peach lifted by fresh lime and a hint of lychee.

Palate: Juicy melon, mandarin, and ripe pear flow across a soft, silky texture brightened by lively acidity.

Finish: Clean, dry close with citrus zest, fresh herbs, and a cool mineral snap.

Lovely with shrimp sautéed in garlic and olive oil, Thai coconut curries with lime leaf, or fresh chèvre with honey—the wine’s floral lift, citrus brightness, and gentle texture bring balance and freshness to each bite.
