Mitch Milicich, FWC\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe note below is comes from geologist and terroir expert who consults to Comando G: If any of Comando G’s vineyards can be said to be ‘well-rounded,’ it’s Rumbo al Norte. In this terroir, every element is perfectly balanced in the right proportion. It’s a highly decomposed granite soil with a large amount of silt and sand, as well as a touch of clay that lends a deeper, more serious feel to the wine. This tiny amount of clay tames the wines’ wilder side, making it tense yet generous and deep. It’s the perfect Vosne-Romanée. \u003cstrong\u003ePedro Parra, published in Calicata; The Gredos as a Terroir (2022)\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe 2022 Rumbo al Norte shows the regularity of this vineyard that cushions the effect of the warmer years nicely. It was a nice crop, the largest ever, which, like the other wines from this vintage, helped to provide balance and finesse in a year when the summer saw heat waves and warm nights. The altitude, over 1,000 meters, and the north-facing exposition helped too. The tannins feel quite polished, especially when compared with the 2022 Rey Moro; it's gentler, and the wine is silky and round, a rare feature that year. It will gain finesse with time in bottle, as warmer years need more time in bottle. This was also given an extra year of aging in concrete after the time in foudre. 1,743 bottles were filled in February 2025.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e98 pts, Luis Gutiérrez, The Wine Advocate.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Five Way Cellars","offers":[{"title":"750ml","offer_id":43409819992182,"sku":"22233","price":850.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0061\/3331\/7750\/files\/4560_Image1_c0256b55-de5a-4aa6-9686-0958e35bb3d0.jpg?v=1778834813","url":"https:\/\/fivewaycellars.com.au\/products\/comando-g-rumbo-al-norte-garnacha-2022","provider":"Five Way Cellars","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
