9.1Sipping Fine Wine
Pale lemon with crisp stone fruit and citrus aromas. On the palate apple, peach and grapefruit flavors with citrus lime zest. A consistent offering from La Cana. Medium finish with mineral notes carrying through on the ending. Nice value.

Honeysuckle and pear were noted early in the bottle. Later, prominent notes of lemon-lime with a smooth, dry, easy to drink finish. We did not experience the salinity that we have noted in other Spanish Albariños. (Grilled cod steaks, yellow rice, asparagus with the Eberlys)
