White wine Raimat Castell Chardonnay

Chardonnay is the varietal emblematic of Raimat. Crafted from the years 70, Chardonnay Raimat offers white wines, very aromatic, complex, fresh and fruity. Raimat Castell is the dream of a visionary, and his castle is the memory. A shield engraved in stone, found over one hundred years ago on the entry door shows a bunch of grapes and a hand. This symbol became the origin of the name Raimat (“Raïm”, grapes in Catalan, and “mà”, hand) and in the image of the brand. With Raimat Castell, we commemorate the origins of Raimat who endure with steadfastness as the walls of his castle.

DEVELOPMENT (VINIFICATION)

The Chardonnay is gathered in three phases: the first with a potential alcohol of the 12% (to get the citrus flavors), the second with 13% (tropical flavors) and the third time with potential alcohol of 14% (flavors of ripe apricots). The grape arrives during the night, fact that allows it to reach low temperatures, to preserve the aromas of the variety and avoid oxidation of unwanted. Is performed a pressing immediate, to then make a natural clarification at low temperatures during 24-48h. Once clean, the wort, is decanted into a stainless steel tank with cooling system for performing a controlled fermentation between 16-18 ºC. After the alcoholic fermentation, the wines are preserved in tanks, avoiding oxidation, until the time of bottling. Thanks to the possibility of being able to harvest in a step-like manner, you get different styles of Chardonnay. The blend consists in mixing these styles to give complexity to this wine white, without straying from the initial goal: to maintain the expression of the fruit and the freshness.

The winery:

 

The current landscape of the finca Raimat has little to do with the beginning when Manuel Raventós began his dream, after the acquisition of 3.200 hectares of barren lands in Lleida. In those days the farm was just a desolate desert from which it was difficult to imagine that it could be obtained from fruit some day.

In the middle of the desert who bought the Raventós family, they erected a castle on top of a hill. A coat of arms engraved in the stone over the door, and explains the name of Raimat. In him appear to be a bunch of grapes and a hand, in Catalan, “raïm”, and “mà”, which illustrate the origin of the word Raimat.

The winery Raimat is the result of two architectural projects only. In 1918, Joan Rubió i Bellver, a disciple of the famous Gaudi, built what would be the first reinforced concrete building in Spain and in 1988, Domingo Triay would be in charge of carrying out the new and current wine cellar at Raimat.
