ABOUT THIS WINE
The "Navatalgordo Tinto" is crafted from old-vine Garnacha (Grenache) grapes sourced from the rugged, high-altitude vineyards in Navatalgordo, within the Castilla y León region. The vineyard’s unique terroir, with its poor, sandy soils and significant temperature variation, imparts a distinctive freshness and minerality to the wine. Fermentation occurs with native yeasts and the wine is aged in a combination of concrete tanks and used barrels to preserve its purity and fruit expression. This Garnacha is a testament to Comando G’s dedication to producing terroir-driven wines that reflect the unique characteristics of their high-altitude vineyards. It pairs well with a range of dishes, including grilled meats, roasted vegetables, and rich stews.
