Winemaker's Notes:
Pineapple, lemon, seashell and salt scents carry through on the pure, silky palate. Finishes very long with brilliant acidity, rich citrus fruit flavors, fine minerals and just the slightest touch of almond. Absolutely delicious.

About La Cana:
A cool new wine from the Jorge Ordonez Portfolio.A wine of this quality and magnitude can only come from carefully tended old gnarled vines grown under adverse conditions.
