Description


The Cañas family’s bodega in the premium Alavesa region feels just like a Bordeaux Cru Classé cellar and is highly rated by fine wine critic Robert Parker.

White Rioja is a classic in Spain and Luis Cañas is a master of the style balancing ripe fruit and toasty oak to mouthfilling perfection. Fermentation in French barriques adds to the opulence of this white, and the use of fruit hand-picked in the cool of night keeps it fresh and aromatic.

Pale gold in the glass with enticing aromas of vanilla and coconut. Rich and lemony with nutty oak hints and a crisp finish. Great partner for rich seafood paella.
