La Caña Albariño

Practicing Organic
    • Description :

      Traditional dry farmed viticulture. Practicing organic pergola trained vines, cultivated completely by hand.
      Vinification: Hand-harvested and stored in small baskets. The grapes are sorted at the winery and pressed after a 12-hour cold soak, which helps prevent oxidation of the must and allows us to reduce the amount of SO2 used in winemaking. Destemmed and whole cluster pressing in a pneumatic press. Fermented 25% in 500L & 600L puncheons and demi-muids (second use through 12 vintages old), 75% in stainless steel. Sur lie ageing for eight months with bi-weekly battonage in both barrel and tank.
      Aging: Sur lie aging in the fermentation vessel for 4.5 months with bi-weekly battonage in both barrel and tank.

      Grape varieties :

      100% Albariño

      Soil :

      Acidic sandy alluvial soils that are the result of the decomposition of the granite mother rock.

      Tasting notes :

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