El Tamboril tinto VOORVERKOOP Collectie kist 12 fl. 2023Comando G - 75 cl.

Ulterior is a project that saw the light in 2007. Planting was done in el Romeral, in the center of La Mancha (Tomelloso). At the base was Elias López-Montero, according to Decanter one of Spain's most promising oenologists. With great respect for his terroir and his history, Elias manages to make beautiful wines that underscore the authenticity of his region.

Daniel Landi is one of the most talked-about young winemakers in Spain. He has set Sierra de Gredos back on the wine map of Spain. This Uvas de la Ira blend (Spanish for Grapes of Wrath, like the John Steinbeck novel) is his entry level wine. But what an entry level wine! It is made with old grenaches from different part of the Sierra, mainly on slate (pizarra).

This entry level wine of the Comando G is a reference to an old Spanish TV character, la Bruja Averia (the injured witch). Inside the bottles is a very refined Grenache wine, as usual with the Comando G.

The Grenache "Commandos" often find some inspiration in Burgundy, as is shown with this wine. Beside their single vineyard selections - what one could call Grands Crus, they have made a "Premier Cru", Rozas de Puerrto Real, from a 900-meter-high vine.
