Juan Gil 2007 Monastrell (Jumilla)

Country: Spain / Levante
Variety: Monastrell
Winery: Juan Gil /

Earthy, meaty and leathery, with an herbal quality to the bouquet. The palate is chunky and soupy, with stewed berry, latent sweetness, and a mild herbal aftertaste. Seems syrupy at points and then fresher and better at other times. Has its good qualities but finishes short.
