White wine Raimat Window

Description

Tasting notes: RAIMAT WINDOW

• View: Pale yellow colour with greenish reflections.
• Nose: Delicate and subtle displays mineral notes combined with a burst of white fruit (money) and tropical (pineapple) and citrus notes, with an elegant aromatic touch of mediterranean herbs and fennel.
• Mouth: Came balanced and with character, mouth thin and silky, but with a body and personality. Elegant, full of nuances of flower and white fruit, on a background mineral reflection of the terroir which is so characteristic.

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.
