Winemaker Notes
Pale yellow with greenish highlights. Mineral aromas at the start, joined halfway by white flowers, mango, melon and grapefruit. Fresh, citrus sensation in mouth at first, becoming more voluminous midway and with a long and refreshing finish dominated by white flowers and melon.
Ideal for Japanese and Thai dishes such as tempura and pan-fried vegetables. Also for dishes featuring white meat, fish, seafood, rice dishes, pasta and appetizers.

This is really well-done for an albarino from here with plenty of dried lemon, mango and papaya, as well as some salt and mineral undertones. It’s full-bodied, yet tight and focused.

Raimat is the story of a dream. The dream of a family that put all their effort and passion to turn an inert land into a sea of vineyards.
Where many only saw a desert, Manuel Raventós imagined in 1914 what would later become a lively property of almost 8,000 acres of vineyards.
After the first harvest in 1917 -7 baskets and 1,000 pounds of grapes-, the Raimat winery was built in 1918, being the first concrete building in Spain. This pioneering spirit has remained in the company, with the introduction of grape varieties and cultivation techniques from the United States in the 70’s, and the commitment to organic viticulture during the last 20 years.
The result? Today, Raimat is one of the benchmarks for sustainable viticulture, having one of the largest vineyards in Europe, brimming with life and biodiversity, and a wide range of high quality wines and cavas.
