Description

"At the crossroads of classicism and unpretentious cool, Landi and García have introduced a new audience – of both drinkers and collectors – to a finer side of Spanish wines."
- Ines Salpica (Decanter Magazine)

Comando G started as two mates chasing ancient Garnacha vines in the rugged hills west of Madrid. What they found up in the Sierra de Gredos wasn’t just old vines on granite slopes - it was a whole new take on Spanish Garnacha. Light-touch, high-altitude, detail-first winemaking that’s turned plenty of heads.

La Bruja is their most accessible bottling, but don’t let that fool you. It’s from 60-year-old bush vines grown organically on decomposed granite, all picked by hand and fermented with whole bunches. Nothing fancy, just real attention to detail - aged in large old oak and bottled unfiltered, with zero gloss and all the charm.

The 2023 release has that classic Gredos lift and crunch, but feels a little calmer and more composed than the sun-baked 2022. Still full of energy, still hanging out somewhere between mountain wine and bistro red, but maybe with just a touch more polish.

"It has good ripeness and development of aromas and flavors and is floral, clean, red fruited and herbal, with 14% alcohol and very good freshness and acidity, coming through as balanced and elegant."
- Luis Gutierrez (The Wine Advocate)

95 points - "The regional red 2023 La Bruja is now 100% from Cebreros, no more from Madrid; so, they produced fewer bottles, and there will be even less in 2024 (20,000 bottles). It's like a meatier, juicier version of the 2021 and is less reductive but still stony and fine-boned. It has good ripeness and development of aromas and flavors and is floral, clean, red fruited and herbal, with 14% alcohol and very good freshness and acidity, coming through as balanced and elegant. 40,943 bottles and 500 magnums produced. It was bottled in August 2024." - Luis Gutierrez (The Wine Advocate)

Comando G

High in the rugged Sierra de Gredos, just west of Madrid, Comando G is redefining Spanish Garnacha. Daniel Gómez Jiménez-Landi and Fernando García craft wines of purity, finesse and place - not power - using old vines rooted in decomposed granite up to 1,200 metres above sea level.

Their philosophy is radical in its simplicity: farm biodynamically, ferment whole bunch, age in neutral oak. No tricks, no heavy hands - just clarity, tension, and minerality. Think Garnacha with the precision of Pinot or Nebbiolo.

From cult bottlings like Las Umbrías and Rumbo al Norte to the broader village wines, their work has captured global attention without selling out. These aren’t polished show ponies - they’re soulful, site-driven expressions that vibrate with energy and authenticity.

But Comando G is more than a wine label. It’s a quiet revolution in the making. Every vine is hand-tended, dry-grown and treated with reverence. They’re not just restoring a grape - they’re reviving a landscape. This is mountain wine at its most profound: electric, transparent, and rooted in place. Comando G isn’t following the zeitgeist - they’re reshaping it, bottle by bottle.
