The Juan Gil Bruto is a wine produced in very small quantities and comes from a very old vineyard with Monastrell (Mourvedre in French) vines.

Vinification takes place in stainless steel tanks at a maximum temperature of 25ÂșC. After maceration-fermentation has been carried out, it is transferred to French and American oak barrels to undergo malolactic fermentation, where it remains for aging.

The Juan Gil Bruto has a cherry-red color with purple reflections at the edges. On the nose, aromas of ripe black fruit, toasted notes, leather, espresso, and cocoa. Full-bodied on the palate with liqueur notes, good structure, and a long, balanced finish.

This wine cries out for roast beef or game, creamy rice, braised vegetables, mushrooms, and our favorite is with stews such as a hachee. As a meditation wine, it is fantastic with blue cheeses.

Sommy Pairing Beschrijving De 2023 Juan Gil Bruto toont kersenrode kleur met paarse schakeringen en opent met rijp zwart fruit, geroosterde tonen, leer, espresso en cacao, terwijl hij in de mond vol en rijk is met likeurachtige concentratie, stevige structuur en een lange, evenwichtige afdronk. Daardoor vormt hij een perfecte partner voor rundvlees, lam en gegrild vlees omdat zijn tannines en geroosterde aroma's het vet en de umami van gegrild of gestoofd vlees verzachten, en hij extra goed tot zijn recht komt bij langzaam gegaard rundvlees zoals hachee, langzaam geroosterd lam of krachtige barbecue met een lichtzoete glaze, terwijl ook romige risotto’s met paddenstoelen of een krachtige blauwe kaas hem als meditatie-wijn versterken.

The beautiful bodega Juan Gil was founded in 1916 and has been owned by the Gil family for generations. Unlike the majority of Jumilla, the vineyards are located on the plateau between the mountains. As a result, Juan Gil benefits from a more temperate climate compared to the wineries located in the valley. The metamorphosis on Juan Gil's domain is truly spectacular. Where Juan Gil was always one of the leading wineries of the Jumilla region, today it marks itself more than ever as the top winery of the region. This is mainly due to the constant investments of owner Miguel Gil. His wines from the Jumilla region, which was synonymous with mass and basic, now rank among the very best in Spain. And what is beautiful, not only the top cuvées but any wine with the Gil signature is a pleasure. In addition to the well-known and famous wines of Juan Gil under the name El Nido and Clio, the family has beautiful domains including Pedrera, the 12 Meses (silver Label)| and the L'Altre de Can Blau. All in all, beautiful wines which are all organically grown and produced and have an excellent price/quality ratio

Miguel Gil also owns the top estate El Nido and out of respect and love for his region (and great wine!), is choosing quality over quantity in Jumilla, which had been undiscovered for years. For the mini-project of Bodegas El Nido, he calls on the Australian top winemaker Chris Ringland (at Parker perfect for 100/100
). At this small Bodega, 2 wines are made: Clio & El Nido. The 16 hectares of Monastrell vineyards, which are 60 years old, are situated on terraces that are oriented to the northeast. In addition, 25 years ago, 12 hectares of Cabernet Sauvignon were planted in the same region on the north-facing hills. Today, these unique vineyards offer top-quality grapes that are magnificently refined by the Gil-Ringland duo into Spain's most aristocratic wines.

Organic/organic viticulture and sustainability are important elements in the vision of the Gil Family. Click here to see a nice video overview: Gil Family Estates - Video
