Comando G 'Las Iruelas' El Tiemblo, Castilla y Leon, Spain 2019
The bottled 2019 Las Iruelas is clearly the highlight of the vintage (together with the 2019 Rumbo al Norte from the Comando G portfolio), even better than anticipated when I tasted it last year. This has a developed nose, it's open and is the one that is truly reminiscent of Rayas with the notes of beeswax, honey, brick dust and decayed leaves and further complexity, like the wine has a fragility that is not present in the other wines here or in the Comando G portfolio. It has a medium-bodied palate with abundant fine-grained tannins but with a different texture from the wines from granite soils, as this is from slate and quartz. This is really outstanding and transcends the character of the vintage. It became more and more floral and aromatic with time in the glass. 3,347 bottles were filled in June 2021 after an extended élevage.
