Bodegas Juan Gil
BLUE LABEL Monastrell Blend
Jumilla, Murcia, Spain
Began 1916, when Juan Gil Giménez, great-grandfather of the present generation, built a winery in heart of Jumilla. Blue label spent 18 months in new French and American oak barrels. Monastrell, Cab Sauv & Syrah blend (60/30/10), low yield, aromas of red berry and toasty oak. Palate shows flavors of dark berry fruits, espresso, cacao and hints of sweet spice. Round dusty tannins, well integrated with oak, medium+ finish ending with fruit and rich earthy oaky character. Nice!

モナストレル、シラー、カヴェルネソーヴィニヨン
口に含んだ瞬間に感じるフルボディ。プラム、ベリー、熟成に伴う樽香(バニラ様)が比較的強め。味わいの変化は面白いが少し甘めなので、もう少しタンニン感が欲しいところ、

Blend of Monastrell (60%), Cabernet Sauvignon (30%) and Syrah (10%). Dark ruby/purple/black color. Aromas of cooked berries, leather and dusty earth. Black plum and blackberry compote on the palate with hints of black tea and toasted vanilla. Long and oaky finish with a touch of slate and dark chocolate. Big and full bodied, but the tannins are nicely rounded and there is a balanced note of acidity. Well crafted and a great example of an excellent Southern Spanish Red.

Perfect wine! This was such a beautiful well-balanced wine. I enjoyed this beauty with “Spanish Steaks with Patatas Bravas and Bell Pepper Alioli,” and it was simply delicious!
