(Juan Gil Monastrell) 100% Monastrell. This dark-garnet wine offers aromas of red berries and toasted, smoky notes from 12 months of barrel aging. The palate features sweet tannins, ripe fruit, alcohol, and lingering oak. Jumilla and the Mighty Monastrell
(Hijos de Juan Gil Juan Gil) COLOR-dark; NOSE-huge layers of Dutch licorice; dark fruits (black currant, blueberries); a little chalky; TASTE-a gorgeous red fruit component that brings a lot of thunder on the mid-palate; JM-91; GV-No Score
