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 commerical wines.. La Caña demonstrates the complexity, intensity, and longevity Albariño can achieve when sourced from old vineyards and using serious winemaking practices."

"Aromas of bosc pear, almond skin and hay open on the nose along with lilac blossom and a touch of petrichor. The palate brings along flavors of dried orange peel and muddled Empire apple that dawdle along dew-dusted forest floor." -RS, 11/1/26

"Flavors of Honeycrisp apple, nectarine and passion fruit are on display in this vivid white, backed by racy acidity and a tangy streak of salinity. Hints of grated ginger, blood orange peel and pink peppercorn are a zesty thread on the finish. Drink now. 23,000 cases made, 2,000 cases imported." -AN, 5/4/26
