About Juan Gil Blue Label

The Juan Gil winery is a historic establishment in the DO Jumilla, constructed in 1916 by Juan Gil Giménez. Currently, the fourth generation is at the helm of the winery. Over the years, Juan Gil has established itself as an internationally renowned winery, with significant global reach. 

Juan Gil Etiqueta Azul is crafted from the monastrell, cabernet, and syrah grape varieties. The grapes are sourced from ancient vineyards, 70 years old, situated at an altitude of 700m on sandy, limestone, and stony soils, which are notably poor in nutrients. These soil conditions, combined with a climate of significant thermal contrasts, result in a very low yield, which translates into high-quality grapes with a remarkable concentration of flavours.
For the production of Juan Gil Etiqueta Azul, each grape variety is vinified separately. The maceration and fermentation occur in small stainless steel tanks, and the malolactic fermentation takes place in French and American oak barrels.

After vinification is complete, the wine obtained from each variety rests in its respective French and American oak barrel for 18 months. Finally, a definitive blend of all the varieties is created in steel tanks where the wine rests until it is bottled.

Juan Gil Etiqueta Azul is a mature and concentrated wine that will delight those seeking a full-bodied wine.
