The perfect wine for shellfish, La Cana Albarino is a bright, minerally white with tons of personality. You'll love the clean citrus aromas and flavors. One taste and you'll be hooked. Bring on the oysters!
Bodegas La Cana Description
Winemaker Jorge Ordoñez was the first to export Albariño outside of Spain. Vines were planted between 1970-84 and are greatly influenced by the nearby Atlantic. Seabreeze and lime zest on the nose lead to a crisp, medium-bodied palate of citrus and minerals. Extended time on the lees provides a wonderful richness.
James Suckling: 92 Points
Crushed seashells, chalk, salted lemons and sliced apples on the nose. Bone-dry salinity brings out plenty of briny austerity on a textured, medium-bodied palate. Pithy and gastronomic in the finish. I like the fact that this is not a fruity but rather a bony Albarino.
Jeb Dunnuck: 91 Points
More honeyed lime, minty herbs, and crushed stone notes all emerge from the 2023 La Caña, a 100% Albarino that's medium-bodied, has bright, juicy acidity, and a clean finish. It's going to be incredibly versatile on the dinner table and is impeccably made.
