Juan Gil Jumilla comes out in the RhoneGrapes: Syrah, Grenache (Garnacha), Mourvedre (Monastrell), thrive and Carignan. Juan Gil is 100% Monastrell and is a wine of power and finesse.
The selected grapes for this wine come from 40 years old plots, vineyards on their property. Here, shallow, chalky soils on a bed of lime and stone, with a dry climate to produce any combination of the low yields (1.8 tons per hectare) for wine of this complexity.
It is a wine with a rich color, abundant ripeFruit flavors and a long, spicy finish, balanced. Better to drink with roasts and game, grilled and barbecued red meat, rice, game, etc.
