Juan Gil 4 Meses Yellow Label Monastrell 2024An old customer favourite has returned! Bodegas Juan Gil make a lovely, rich, opulent organic wine, from 40 year old Monastrell vines in Jumilla, southern Spain. Juan Gil 4 has been aged in oak for 4 months, the labelling is simple to understand in this regard. It has plenty of ripe plum and bramble flavours with layers of cream and chocolate flavours, it really packs a punch.
