£51.96
Subtle, elegant and fresh, with aromas of lemon zest, pink grapefruit, golden apple and nectarine at first, followed by delicate hints of bread crust, lemon biscuit and toasted almonds Notes of spring blossom and fennel suggest its distinctive vineyard origins On the palate, there is both freshness and body, with delicate, fine bubbles Dry, with good acidity, it expresses fruits, nuts and a mineral touch Gramona's viticulture is based on careful observation and the management of the factors which influence the terroir and habitat No chemical herbicides or pesticides are employed, instead utilising natural resources, with the primary aim of maintaining a balance in the environment Spontaneous ground cover is encouraged in order to improve soil structure, and biodynamics, which goes beyond organic growing, helps breathe life into the vineyards to raise levels of biodiversity Plant-based infusions and decoctions are deployed against pest infestations, and the only fertiliser used is careful application of exclusively home-produced organic compost
