January 11, 2019 - Beautiful medium+ garnet. Soft, mellow almost muted nose of smokey ripe black fruits, leather, tobacco, slight gaminess and minor oxidative notes. Matching palate that is smooth and savory but with a ripe black fruit core and sweet soft tannins. Perhaps a little one dimensional in approach and flavor profile but this a $20 bottle that developed decent tertiary flavors after 10 years in the cellar. 5 of 6 bought upon release and glad i have one left.

July 23, 2017 - Very dark. Full of very dark fruit. Tasty, full bodied, powerfully flauvoured and structured. A little rustic.

February 11, 2017 - Beautiful and tempting bouquet with sweet spices like cinnamon and vanilla as well as soft dark forest fruits. On the palate the same impressions. Some sweet and salty licorice. Beautiful balance between acidity and sweetness. The tannin is lovely soft now. Really a great pleasure. Pity it was my last bottle.

September 15, 2010 (link)(Bodegas Juan Gil, Jumilla) Bodegas Juan Gil, established in 1916 in the southeastern Spanish state of Murcia, is run today by the founder’s great-grandchildren. This wine is 100% Monastrell (Mourvèdre) from 40-year-old vines. Deep ruby with pink-purple edges and slow-staining tears, it offers a nose of dark-berry compote and sweet spices. The palate is rich and full, with flavors of black cherry, plum, and white pepper topped off with a kiss of cedar smoke. Try it with burgers, Korean short ribs, bittersweet chocolate, or all by itself. Hot Picks
