Low rainfall and plenty of sunshine are perfect for this variety. Though innovative viticultural techniques aid in helping this wine to be crafted to a fresher style, importantly, Juan Gil have worked with selected yeasts to create a wine that is low in histamines. Histamines are a naturally occuring part of fermented food and drinks which a small number of people are allergic to. In addition, as the winery do not use the commonly added preservative SO2, this can be a wine recommended to those who suffer from allergies. Because SO2 is a preservative, the wine has to be handled very carefully to prevent oxidation and this informs the very fresh and elegant style of Monastrell you have in the glass with this wine.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"half makefullwidth\"\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"title\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTasting notes\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOozing with bright cherry and blackberry fruit, it has an absolutely delicious nose.

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.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"container-inner  producer-sustainability-slice\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"two-col-inner\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"half full-stack left-align-content\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"desc-inner\"\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eA Note on Sustainability\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003chr\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBodegas Juan Gil are committed to respecting the land, and to use energy and natural resources efficiently – with regard to their winery, vineyards and wines they produce. A large part of their vineyards are farmed organically, and they hold ‘Sustainable Wineries for Climate Protection’ certification at the highest level - ‘Spanish Wineries for Emission Reduction’. This has an even greater requirement for qualifying wineries to reduce greenhouse gas emissions, energy use, and their carbon footprint, and to show continuous improvement. Only a handful of Spanish wineries, including Juan Gil, have so far attained this category. In early 2023 Bodegas Juan Gil were awarded International Wineries for Climate Action to the Gold Standard – one of only 6 gold members globally. IWCA Gold is the highest industry standard in carbon emission reduction.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Wenlock Cellars","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56891501379928,"sku":null,"price":13.95,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0936\/2243\/6184\/files\/EGO520.png?v=1773332676","url":"https:\/\/wenlockcellars.co.uk\/products\/juan-gil-comoloco-do-jumilla-organic-2024","provider":"Wenlock Cellars","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
