Juan Gil Jumilla Blue Label has an opulent nose of ripe black fruits, spice and balsamic notes. The palate is complex and concentrated, rich and full with mocha, cherry, plum and chocolate characters, backed by rounded tannins and fresh acidity.
Jumilla is a tough place to be a vine, yet these old bush vines, high in the hot, dusty hills of Jumilla produce characterful and fruit-packed wines from the local Monastrell grape.
Produced from low-yielding, old vine Monastrell - plus additional Cabernet Sauvignon and Syrah. All planted at around 700m altitude. Fermented in small, 5 ton, tanks followed by malolactic fermentation in French and American oak barrels. The separate wines are aged for around 18 months and then blended.
