About this WINE
Castell del Remei
Castell del Remei is one of the great Catalonian wine-making producers. Located at 300 metres above sea-level, about 120km to the west of Barcelona, its vineyards enjoy a semicontinental climate, granitic soils and a threecentury history which is closely linked to that of leading Catalan dynasties.
It is the leading property in the denominación of Costers del Segre and also owns the altitudinous ‘boutique’ bodega of Cérvoles, which borders Priorat and produces some of the most fascinating wines of Spain.
Other Varieties
There are over 200 different grape varieties used in modern wine making (from a total of over 1000). Most lesser known blends and varieties are traditional to specific parts of the world.

Description
This is a blend shared between Chardonnay and Macabeo, which has been assembled and aged for eight months in new French and American barrels, with periodic bâtonnage to add a gentle mealy flavour. The wine has attractive orchard aromatics with hints of sweet spice and compôte, and then a rich, complex and very complete palate with notes of citrus peel lending freshness and definition to a fruit profile derived from the more tropical end of the spectrum.
Simon Field MW - Wine Buyer Oaked Chardonnay and Macabeo provide a full-bodied buttery wine with a delicious creamy palate that will work brilliantly with roast white meats.
