Luis Cañas Viñas Viejas 2022 is a white wine that stands out for its connection to the viticultural roots of Rioja Alavesa. It comes from a careful selection of old Viura and Malvasía Riojana vines, planted in clay-calcareous soils that impart notable mineral intensity to the wine. The grapes are hand-harvested and subjected to a double selection to ensure the best quality. Fermentation takes place partly in 500-liter French oak barrels and partly in tanks, followed by five months of aging on lees with regular bâtonnage. This confers the wine notable volume, complexity, and a silky texture. On the nose, it offers a bouquet of white flowers, chamomile, fennel, and ripe fruits, with subtle touches of hazelnut and fine pastry. On the palate, it is fresh, structured, and creamy, showing exceptional balance and a long finish with mineral and saline memories. Luis Cañas Viñas Viejas 2022 is considered one of the best expressions of the traditional white wine of Rioja Alavesa, capable of evolving perfectly in the bottle.
