Comando GVillanueva 2023

Set amidst the idyllic landscape of Sierra de Gredos, the Comando G winery is an epitome of passion, hard work, and an unwavering commitment to excellence. Founded by a trio of intrepid, young winemakers, Daniel Landi, Fernando Garcia, and Jerome Bougnaud, it’s a winery with a bold vision and even bolder techniques.

Dedicated to the production of distinctive and characterful Garnacha wines, Comando G embodies the very spirit of Spanish viticulture. Shaped by a rugged, mountainous terroir and nurtured under the warm Spanish sun, the vines yield a low but quality bounty. And it’s here that Comando G thrives, in pursuing a minimal intervention approach and farming the vineyards biodynamically, they succeed in coaxing out the elusive essence of the Garnacha grape.

The winery's unique selling point is its staunch favour for century-old single vineyard wines. Their repertoire of intensely flavoured reds aims to capture the distinctiveness of each plot. This respect for heritage, unyielding in an industry often swayed by modern techniques, provides a refreshing perspective and ultimately a better quality of wine. Each sip of their magnificent elixirs offers an indication of the terrain, the climate, and most importantly, the grape.

Moreover, the impressive commitment with which this dynamic trio approaches winemaking is inspiring, like characters from an old wine folklore, they tend to their vines, undertake manual harvesting and leverages traditional fermentation in open-top wooden vats. Their meticulous approach and dedication are testimony to the winery’s mantra of “respect for what nature gives us".

Comando G’s exceptional wines are not just beverages, they’re conversations; intimate dialogues between the land, the grape, and the consumer. Drinkers can expect an intriguing, ever-changing narrative, unfolding with each passing vintage. With Comando G, every wine is unique, complex and provides an authentic taste of Spain's viticultural history. It is, an ode to the Garnacha grape; to Spanish wine-making, redefined.
