Bodegas Juan Gil, Jumilla Monastrell 2021

RP93

Indulge in the bold and expressive flavors of Bodegas Juan Gil Jumilla Monastrell 2021, a wine that beautifully reflects its unique terroir. Produced from estate vineyards featuring 52-55-year-old Monastrell vines, this wine is a testament to craftsmanship and tradition. The chalky, stony soils and the age of the vines contribute to the wine’s concentrated flavors and complexity.

The grapes are carefully harvested by hand and meticulously sorted using an optical sorting machine to ensure only the finest berries make it into the wine. Following maceration and fermentation in stainless steel tanks, the wine undergoes malolactic fermentation and matures for 12 months in French oak barrels, adding depth and refinement.

Tasting Notes:

  • Aromas: Enticing notes of ripe dark berries, black plums, cherries, delicate floral hints, and a touch of smoky elegance.
  • Flavor: Rich and layered, with a silky texture on the mid-palate, complemented by velvety tannins. The long, spicy finish is highlighted by lingering juicy fruit flavors.

Experience the perfect balance of tradition and modern winemaking with Bodegas Juan Gil Jumilla Monastrell 2021—a wine that delivers richness and elegance in every sip.

Robert Parker's Wine Advocate

"2021 is a cooler and fresher year than 2020, even though both were very good. The 2021 Juan Gil (silver label) feels more harmonious, complex and deep than the 2020, as I noticed in most wines when I tasted both years; it's longer and more elegant, very clean. It has similar parameters but the perception is fresher. It matured in French oak barrels."
