They say we don't remember days, but moments. And at the Castle of Raimat, a magnificent 12th-century edifice perched atop a hill in Raimat, Lleida (Catalonia), each instant becomes a unique memory, where history and wine merge in an exceptional setting.
Since its establishment in 1914, José Raventó took a gamble on barren lands in the northwest of Lleida, a place no one had deemed suitable for cultivation. Today, those seemingly inhospitable lands have become the cornerstone of success for one of the most illustrious families in the wine world. Decades later, Raimat has not only preserved its legacy but has been the driving force behind the D.O. Costers del Segre, perfectly reflecting its tradition of excellence and evolution.
Vol d’Ànima de Raimat Blanc is the true essence of everything this winery represents: a white wine crafted from a blend of chardonnay, xarel·lo, and albariño. Sourced from Finca Raimat, where sustainable viticulture is practiced, this wine embodies the perfect harmony between winemaking tradition and oenological innovation. The continental climate with Mediterranean nuances, along with the thermal contrasts during grape maturation, enhances the concentration of aromas, transforming each bottle into a true explosion of character and freshness.
The meticulous production begins with night harvesting, ensuring the freshness of the grapes. The vinification process respects the maturation times of each variety, and fermentation in stainless steel tanks at low temperatures extracts the full aromatic essence of the grapes. The result is a wine that captures the entire essence of the D.O. Costers del Segre.
With a label adorned with the same tiles that have decorated the castle walls since 1935, Vol d’Ànima de Raimat Blanc evokes the rich history that permeates each bottle. A tribute to history, innovation, and those special moments that connect us with the most essential. Because, in the end, it is those moments that truly define us.
