Producer Information

Raimat embodies the respect for the environment, and the natural coexistence of tradition and vanguard. Located in Costers del Segre, Catalunya, Raimat is a clear reflection of its ability to balance an eager vocation for modernity, with all the drive and daring needed to innovate, with an unbreakable connection and respect for one’s roots. In this sense, it can be said that Raimat has remained true to its identity throughout its initiatives, both in the past and today.

More than 100 years they ago decided to turn a desert into a sea of vineyards and today it has become a reference in sustainable and ecological viticulture. At Raimat, being sustainable is not a fad, it is a commitment they have accepted from day one. They have worked carefully to maintain a balance between the environment and their activity. They reduce the impact on the earth by integrating all their resources into production. They minimise the production of waste by sorting and recycling it.

Wine Making

The Albariño grapes come from two vineyards that are harvested separately when each one is perfectly ripe. The fermentations take place using selected yeasts. Each component is fermented in a different way to create texture and complexity. The coolest parcel is fermented at a low temperature to obtain the citrus element. The creamy texture comes from lees-fermentations and daily battonage. To achieve greater complexity, a small percentage of Albariño aged for more than ten months in barrel is used. The wine is kept in the optimum conditions until the moment it is stabilised, filtered and bottled.

Tasting Note

Complex aromas of citrus and notes of stone fruits, with subtle hints of white flowers on a mineral background.
