Comando G Single Vineyard Release

It’s time to leave your preconceptions at the door, as Comando G produce Garnacha (Grenache) unlike anyone else in Spain. Comando G’s Daniel Landi and Fernando Garcia craft Garnacha up in the near inaccessible hills of the Sierra de Gredos mountains which are miles away (figuratively and literally) from the dark, powerful, brooding wines of Priorat that hit the scene 20 years or so ago. These are a different breed of Garnacha, light, ethereal, built on tension and finesse. There’s no lack of concentration however, and they have much more in common with high-end Burgundy than what you would normally associate with Spain. Word is well and truly out on these special wines, with demand far outstripping supply and prices skyrocketing on the secondary market.

Offered here are the village wines from the warmer, fleshier 2022 vintage, along with the single vineyard wines from the cool and precise 2021 vintage. Contrary to many regions of the world, Daniel Landi believes the cooler, wetter vintages suit his wines, and the track record of the similar vintages 2013, 2016, and 2018 back up his assertion.
