Producer Details
Jon Cañas (Luis Cañas’ grandson) is the imaginative winemaker behind Bodegas Amaren.
Bodegas Amaren comprises some of the best and highest altitude vineyards around the villages of Samaniego and Leza, where the soil is poor and gnarly old vines produce small bunches, perfect for making highly concentrated Rioja wines.
