Robert Parker's Wine Advocate

The last vintage of the Rozas 1er Cru as it is now is the 2021, because the wine changes in 2022. The 2021 Rozas 1er Cru, a lieu-dit red from the village of Rozas de Puerto Real, is from the same plots as in previous years but cropped from a cool year. They used full clusters with long macerations, an infusion, and it aged in large oak foudres for one year. It's a serious, austere and cold vintage for this wine, which is narrow, mineral and sharp but with full development of flavors, as they picked the grapes at very good ripeness, and the wine finished with 14% alcohol. With time in the glass, it developed some Rhône-ish meaty notes. It has very fine and elegant tannins, rounder than those in warmer years. It feels superb. 14,761 bottles produced. It was bottled in February 2023.

Features

Description

Comando G Rozas 1er Cru is a unique expression of the Garnacha grape variety that forms the basis of this wine. Hailing from the mountainous region of Sierra de Gredos, near Madrid, this wine is the result of the effort and passion of Daniel Landi and Fernando Garcia. The area, known for its simple and inexpensive wines, is also the cradle of ancient and remote vineyards, situated in difficult but impressive terrain.

Winemaking

The winemaking of Comando G Rozas 1er Cru is characterised by a respectful and natural approach. The vineyards, between 50 and 60 years old, are in the process of conversion to organic and are farmed biodynamically. These vineyards are planted on sandy soils derived from granite, slate and quartz, at an elevation of approximately 900 metres. This combination of altitude, free draining soils and a moderately humid microclimate ensures a long growing season, crucial for the development of the wine's character.
The grapes are harvested by hand, usually in October, and fermented with natural yeasts in open French oak vats. Rozas 1er Cru is aged for 10 months in 14HL concrete tanks and a 15HL oak vat, which contributes to its unique profile.

Taste

Comando G Rozas 1er Cru is remarkably aromatic and savoury, noted for its deep minerality and firm tannins. This combination of characteristics gives it an elegance and finesse comparable to the best Pinot from Burgundy or Syrah from the Northern Rhône. The influence of the terroir manifests itself in a surprisingly pale wine, but intensely expressive on the nose and palate, offering a unique and captivating sensory experience.
