Product Overview
Importer's Notes
"La Caña is a wine that Jorge Ordóñez and his winemaking team craft to demonstrate the potential that Albariño shows as a high quality, serious varietal. As Jorge was the first person to export this variety, he has a tremendous passion and appreciation for Albariño, and he decries the use of Albariño to make simplistic, mass-produced, and commercial wines. La Caña demonstrates the complexity, intensity, and longevity Albariño can achieve when sourced from old vineyards and using serious winemaking practices."

"There’s a flinty edge to the poached apricot and white cherry fruit flavors on display in this leesy white. Hints of chamomile, spun honey, Meyer lemon peel and blanched almond add complexity, while a firm spine of crunchy acidity amps up the freshness and fine tension through the clean-cut, salty finish. Drink now through 2030. 23,000 cases made, 20,000 cases imported." -AN, 5/21/25
