The expression of the Albariño grape in the Leridano terroir of Raimat
Raimat Albariño Ecológico es un original blanco que incluye una pequeña proporción de vino criado en barrica en su ensamblaje, realzando el conjunto. Tipicidad varietal con un extra de personalidad, complejidad y plenitud de matices.
Raimat Saira Albariño Ecológico is an exceptional white wine whose blend includes a small proportion of barrel-aged wine, enhancing and rounding out the whole. A wine from the Raimat vineyards in Lleida that preserves the typicity of this variety, traditionally rooted in Rías Baixas, expressing itself with personality, complexity, and a fullness of nuances.
When Manuel Raventós acquired the barren lands of the Raimat estate in 1914, in a desert-like area of Lleida, almost bordering the Los Monegros desert, few believed he was in his right mind. Almost 90 years later, Raimat is a thriving estate with 2,100 hectares dedicated to vineyard cultivation, still in the hands of the Raventós family, owners of the Grupo Codorníu.
The first Raimat winery dates back to 1918 and was designed by the eminent modernist architect Rubió i Bellver. A subsequent expansion in 1988, carried out in line with the latest trends in ecological architecture and landscape integration, gave the winery its definitive appearance. Raimat was one of the first brands to cultivate foreign varieties almost unknown in Spain at the time and to adopt trellis training, leaving behind the classic and traditional bush vine.
