Juan Gil Blanco – 750ML

JS 90

A surprising Spanish dry white wine made from Moscatel de Grano Menudo (known in French as Muscat Blanc à Petits Grains), Juan Gil Blanco is produced in the DO Jumilla.

Crafted by the Juan Gil winery, known for its Monastrell wines, this suprisingly sharp white wine comes from vines grown at an altitude over 700 metres above sea level.

Fermented in stainless steel tanks for 30 days, Juan Gil Blanco 2019 was aged for some weeks before its bottling.

This white wine from Jumilla is fresh and fruit-driven.

Tasting Notes

Bodegas Juan Gil selected Monastrell grapes from old vineyards with low yields, planted on limestone and very stony soils, that are farmed in environmentally friendly way. The result is a wine with a deep red color, abundant ripe fruit aromas and a long spicy well-balanced finish, with toasted notes provided by the French wood.

James Suckling

90 Points // Rich and fruity, but also deep, with ripe blackberries, figs, spice and dark chocolate on the nose. Just a hint of dried fruit here. This is restrainedly generous with a medium to full body, showing creamy tannins and a flavorful finish. A very solid monastrell. From organically grown grapes. Vegan.
