LA CANA 11 ALBARINO
The La Cana is a wine that will surprise you with its zip. It shows a mix of nectarine and apricot that is pure Albarino, but it is fresher and crisper than most with a subdued note of minerality on the mid-palate and finish that is just enough to make the wine-geeks happy. The winemaker here is Alister Gardner from New Zealand and while the flavors are purely a reflection of Spanish soils and grapes, the wine's artful balance of fruit and acidity holds the same excitement of many New Zealand wines.
