Comando G 'La Bruja' Sierra de Gredos 2024 750ml

Product Info

Terroir
Sourced from high-altitude old-vine Garnacha vineyards scattered throughout Spain's Sierra de Gredos, La Bruja reflects one of the country's most exciting wine regions. Planted on decomposed granite soils at elevations often exceeding 800 meters, these vineyards benefit from warm, sunny days and cool mountain nights that preserve freshness and aromatic lift. The combination of old vines, poor soils, and elevation produces Garnacha that is defined by finesse and mineral character rather than weight and ripeness.

Winemaking & Technical Notes
Crafted from organically and biodynamically farmed old-vine Garnacha, the fruit is vinified with a minimal-intervention philosophy that emphasizes transparency and site expression. Whole-cluster fermentation, native yeast, gentle extraction, and restrained aging allow the purity of the fruit and the character of the granite soils to remain at the forefront. La Bruja serves as the introduction to Comando G's celebrated lineup, showcasing the elegance and energy that have redefined modern Spanish Garnacha.

Tasting Notes
Bright ruby in the glass, the 2024 opens with aromas of fresh red cherry, wild strawberry, raspberry, floral notes, and subtle wild herbs. The palate is light on its feet yet expressive, with vibrant acidity, silky tannins, and a distinct mineral character. The finish is fresh, balanced, and remarkably persistent, emphasizing purity and drinkability over richness.

Food Pairing & Service
An exceptionally versatile Garnacha, this wine pairs beautifully with grilled pork, roast chicken, charcuterie, mushroom dishes, tapas, and Mediterranean cuisine. Its freshness also makes it an excellent red to serve slightly chilled alongside lighter fare during warmer months.

Cellaring Potential
While crafted to be approachable in its youth, La Bruja has the balance to evolve gracefully over the next 5–8 years. With additional bottle age, its vibrant fruit will become increasingly savory while retaining the freshness and elegance that define the Sierra de Gredos.
