Tasting Notes
Old bushvine Grenache (or Garnacha) is grown on the high altitude, granitic soils of the Sierra de Gredos in Spain. This might be a wild place but Daniel Gomez Jimenez Landi has tamed it's landscape and bottled a wine that is elegant, delicate and fine, yet full of energy and brightness. Red fruits abound with green cocoa and ripe stalk. A wonderous and joyful expression of the variety, region and winemaker. - Chris L
Daniel Gómez Jiménez-Landi, who usually goes by Dani, comes across as a light-hearted, rock-loving thirty year old. Underneath the jovial demeanour however is a deeply committed viticulturist. Dani’s two Sierra de Gredos projects, Comando G and his eponymous label, have attracted the highest praise from the likes of Jancis Robinson, Andrew Jefford, Luis Gutiérrez and Victor de la Serna.
Dani’s wines are farmed around the town of El Real de San Vicente in the Valle del Tiétar, which lies south of the Gredos along the edges of the Méntrida DO. These place names take prime position on Dani’s labels, acknowledging a desire to express a sense of place with as much precision as possible. From valley to village to individual plot, each bottle is clearly traceable to the piece of land it represents.
