Juan Gil Yellow Label 2021

Monastrell grapes from vines over 40 years old

Juan Gil Yellow Label is made exclusively from Monastrell grapes from the vineyards surrounding the winery. These vines have an average age of more than 40 years. The wine is aged for 4 months in both French and American oak barrels.

The wine presents itself with an intense, deep cherry red color and a powerful aroma that offers pure fruit and complexity. The nose is very appealing with ripe, fruity notes and hints of new wood, licorice, light pepper and vanilla. The taste is well-balanced, dense and fruity with soft tannins and a relatively long aftertaste.

Serving temperature and use: Serve the wine at 16-18° C now or store it for up to 5 years from the year of harvest. It is ideal with rice dishes, pasta, pizza, stews, sausages, pork, roast meats and grilled red and/or white meats. It also goes well with medium-aged cheeses.

It is rare outside of Jumilla to find such a dense and tasty wine from old, low-yielding vines at this price. Not complicated, but simply delicious!
