Bodegas Juan Gil
12 Meses Silver Label Jumilla Monastrell
One of our favorite sweet wines, very easy to drink, would be a great introductory wine for new wine drinkers, bright fruity full flavor, a distinctly Spanish spicy taste

Nov 23rd, 2014Not as sweet as their other 18 meses. I actually enjoyed this one very much. Great Spanish wine and a good introductory wine for newbies.

Aug 10th, 2014Ripe black fruit, medium body and a spicy finish. Always a winner.

Apr 14th, 2014A little overly sweet from what I’ve done to expect from this wine. Low acid, overly ripe fruit. The cork crumbled so it may have been compromised.

Sep 23rd, 2018This is showing off the depth of Manostrell. The bigger cousin to Grenache is showing off here. Deep blackberry and currants with a touch of leather. Earthy, quite a bit a tannin. I would stick this in the back and not touch it until 2020. A head fake at your next Shiraz bind tasting. SIPS-4
