Vinos de Madrid is the Spanish Denominación de Origen covering the vineyards around the capital, within the region of Madrid. WineFortune tracks one wine here: a still red carrying the DO designation, made by the producer Comando G.
The western part of the DO climbs towards the Sierra de Gredos, and this is Garnacha country: old bush vines on granite and sand at altitude, giving pale, perfumed, finely structured reds. Elsewhere in the appellation Tempranillo is planted alongside the white grapes Malvar and Albillo. The climate is continental, with hot summers, cold winters and strong mountain influence in the west.
