Las Iruelas Comando G 2022 hails from the village of El Tiemblo, where the 1-hectare vineyard is situated at an elevation of 1,010 metres. The head-pruned Garnacha vines, planted in 1963, thrive in a mixed sandy terroir that includes granite, slate, schist, quartz and patches of clay. This blend of soils contributes to a distinctive mineral profile typical of the Sierra de Gredos region. The wine presents a dense character with dark fruit notes, complemented by a structure that hints at a Rhône influence.

Las Iruelas suffers less in warm years, and the 2022 Las Iruelas showed quite well. Like some other wines from 2022, it was given one extra year of aging in concrete after spending two winters in oak foudres. It has ripeness with 15% alcohol, but it doesn`t show it, and there`s no sensation of heat at all; the wine is harmonious and balanced. It reflects the slate soils from El Tiemblo, the village where the vineyard is located, and it`s less Mediterranean than other warm vintages. The vines delivered good yields, and it rained during the harvest, which made the wine finer-boned. It`s somewhere in the style of 2019, perhaps 2017 or 2015. 4,522 bottles produced. It was bottled in February 2025.
