In these humble beginnings he made wines which were then sold on to larger Sherry producers. This activity was known as being an almacenista or stockeeper Bright amber color with golden hints. This complex Amontillado shows intense smoky wood, and nutty aromas, resulting from years of aging in the bodegas of Jerez. Dry and elegant on the palate, with a long spicy aftertaste.

A splash of Monastrell imparts a special complexity and elegance to Raventós cuvée de Nit, though the classic mineral freshness of this revered Cava house is untouched. This wine is made up of the traditional Cava varieties. The hand-harvested grapes are assembled, and secondary fermentation occurs in bottles, which rests for at least 15 months before disgorgement. A pale, subdued, and elegant pink color with clean, pure, and almost crystalline aromas of light citrus, red flowers, white fruit, and a touch of cassis. The clean nose evolves with a smooth, voluminous, and fruity texture, pleasant freshness, and fine bubbles. Driven by a very good balance, with low dosage.
