2006 Gramona Penedès Gessami - Spain, Catalunya, Penedès (10/9/2007) Like a riesling, only creamier and less acidic. Light bodied, with a hint of sweetness, and fruit flavors of apples and a little grapefruit. Creamy mouthfeel and some acidity, but lower than most rieslings or SB's, with a nice medium length finish. Good wine for $13. (88 pts.)
I like this wine a lot. THe grape breakdown is 30% large berry muscat, 30% small berry muscat, 30% Sauv Blanc and 10% Gewurtztraminer. I would agree with your score of 88pts. I like the orange compenent in this wine. The finish is quite long for the money. A QPR. BTW Tanzer rated this 90pts.

No. I tried this with one of my distributors. Thinking of putting it in the store to sell.
