Samuel Cano
Samuel Cano exemplifies the evolving face of Spanish natural winemaking. Based in the heart of La Mancha—one of Spain’s most expansive and historically significant wine regions—Samuel embraces both heritage and innovation. Working predominantly with indigenous varieties like Airén, he transforms old-vine fruit into compelling, terroir-driven wines that defy convention.
La Mancha’s semi-arid plateau, known for its intense sunlight and distinctive sandy, calcareous soils of granitic origin, provides the perfect canvas for Samuel’s low-intervention approach. By allowing spontaneous fermentation, avoiding filtration, and adding minimal or no sulfites, he preserves each vintage’s individuality and depth. The result: Wines that balance freshness and complexity, boasting subtle fruit aromatics, a mineral backbone, and layered flavors that evolve with every sip.
From zesty whites with skin contact to vibrant, easy-drinking reds, Samuel’s portfolio reflects an unwavering commitment to authenticity, sustainability, and respect for the land. As both a farmer and a winemaker, he champions biodiversity, working closely with nature rather than bending it to his will. His wines resonate with sommeliers, enthusiasts, and newcomers eager to explore the authenticity and charm of Spanish natural wines.
With Samuel Cano’s creations, you’re invited to experience the true soul of La Mancha—rustic elegance, honest flavors, and a timeless connection between earth, grape, and glass.
