About the Producer
The Gil family have been producers in Jumilla since the early 20th century but took a major step forward when Miguel Gil, great-grandson of the company's founder, built a new bodega in time for the 2003 vintage. Situated on the slopes of the Peñarrubia mountain, the highest part of Jumilla with poor stony soils noted for its richly flavoured, concentrated Monastrell, the bodega owns over 750 hectares of vineyards (mainly bush vines, unirrigated and of very low yield, of indigenous clones from their own nursery) and has access to further fruit from 30 to 70 year old vines. Bodegas Juan Gil is dedicated to producing powerful yet approachable and modern wines, mainly based on Monastrell, which is grown on 85% of the vineyard - other varieties grown are Cabernet Sauvignon, Syrah, Merlot and Petit Verdot.
Vineyard and Winery
Young biodynamic red wine from certified organic vineyards. Biodynamic wine made from organic grapes sourced from Garnacha Tinta vineyards planted at approximately 700 meters of altitude. Its aromatic profile is attractive, original and complex. It showcases the delicate biodynamic cultivation, an ancient peasant process that only allows natural fertilizers and additives, follows the lunar calendar, and embodies a whole philosophy of life that treats the land as a living being, nurturing it by giving back everything it provides us.
