Bodegas La Cana is Jorge Ordonez's tribute to the Albarino he discovered in 1991, when he became the first importer to bring the variety to the US. Named for the reed-like canas along Galicia's granite coast; the winery sources old, pergola-trained vines (planted 1970-2001) from the Val do Salnes, Condado, and Ribeira de Ulla subzones of Rias Baixas.

Winemaker 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.

Brine with lime aromas as well as dried herbs. Medium- to full-bodied, fresh and incisive, with a touch of fruit and salinity. Nervy finish.
91ptsWine Enthusiast
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.
