Note di degustazione
The 2012 Juan Gil (silver label) is pure Monastrell from head-pruned vineyards aged for 12 months in oak barrels. I'm rather puzzled by the 2012, which didn't show any Monastrell character and felt unripe with an acidic personality and unripe fruit both lending a burning sensation, sweetness and a completely unlike Juan Gil-styled wine. It just doesn't make any sense. Attention, because there are 360,000 bottles of this wine.

(aged for a year in French oak): Bright purple. Powerful scents of dark fruit preserves, potpourri and candied licorice, with peppery spices in the background. Sweet and expansive on the palate, showing a juicy quality to its black and blue fruit, mineral and licorice flavors. Closes smooth and smoky, with silky tannins and a lingering mocha quality.
