Red wine Raimat El silenci del molí

For more than 100 years ago an old windmill was working in the farm for a long time. As a tribute to this, appeared “The Molí”, one of the best wines in the history of Raimat which revolutionized the wine world by introducing varietales international, such as Cabernet Sauvignon. Now, again, a new windmill to honor its precedents, a red wine subtle but great character, developed 100% with the variety flag of Raimat.

DEVELOPMENT (VINIFICATION)

We selected the best farms D. O. Costers del Segre Cabernet sauvignon Raimat, to make this single variety red wine. It was cold pre-fermentation maceration to enhance the fruit aromas and to obtain a better structure and color. The fermentation was carried out together with the skins in stainless steel tanks for 10 days at a controlled temperature between 25-28 ºC. During this time we were reassembled with different frequency and intensity, depending on the time of fermentation in which was, to be able to extract the best qualities of the grape. Once the fermentation is complete, we kept the contact with the skins to achieve a greater extraction of aroma, color and structure.

After the maceration posfermentativa, we separated the wine from the skins, is prensó and subsequently started the malolactic fermentation. Part of the Cabernet made the malolactic fermentation in barrel and part in stainless steel tank, to have different fractions that add up to make the blend that we currently have.

PAIRING

Raimat El Silenci del Molí is the perfect companion for red meats in sauce, chocolate, or black fruits, as well as desserts of chocolate mousse and red fruits, biscuits with dried fruits and jams but without cocoas pure, since the tannins overall would be very high.

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.
