This excellent white Rioja from Luis Canas has been made from old vines from the Rioja Avavesa region. Hand selected grapes are aged in new oak for 5 months with the resulting wine striking the perfect balance of fresh, vibrant citrussy fruit and notes honey and vanilla. The palate is elegant, with hints of white flowers and hazelnuts. Dry with balanced acidity and ripe fruits to the finish, a great glass on modern style white Rioja. In 1970 Luis Cañas changed two hundred years of tradition and became the first winemaker in Rioja Alavesa to bottle his young wine rather than sell it as bulk. This bold move, and his continued pioneering spirit, has cemented the winery's enviable reputation as one of the most progressive in the region. Sheltered below the watchful Sierra Cantabria, the vineyards are all old, small plots on chalky-clay soils with a dedicated team of vineyard workers carrying out organic practices and a purpose built, fully equipped accommodation block was built for the entire vineyard team in 2006. Viticulture: With 350 hectares of outstanding vineyards, split across 870 different plots, the viticultural department control every aspect. Each of the plots has its own personality and is categorised and used for different wines according to its characteristics. Vines are situated on slopes and terraces of limestone and clay soil, well exposed to the sun and are at least 60 years old.
Winemaking
Grapes are hand selected and brought to the winery in the smallest tractors in the region. They are hand sorted on of the wineries two Mistral sorting tables, where Juan Luis Cañas stands watch at each harvest. Fermentation occurs in French Oak Barrels for 17 days before the wine is aged in new French and American oak for 5 months, with battonage on the lees, until bottling. Food Matching: Perfect with seafood and shellfish, meats, salads, risottos as well as mild cheeses and nuts. Varieties: Viura 90% Malvasia 10%
Evidence boundary
This page combines the recorded bottle identity with linked source records. An exact region-name match supplies regional context but does not prove that this bottle carries the protected designation. A vineyard is only shown as bottle-level evidence when a wine-to-vineyard link exists. BottlePicker does not infer a vineyard, soil or site climate from a retailer title.
