A red with layers of spicy fruit and damson, that massively over delivers.

Ripe, appealing aromas of plums, blackberries, and cherry and a hint of milk chocolate. Rich and spicy on the palate with dark fruit, balancing acidity and soft tannins.

Bodegas Juan Gil own over 500 hectares of vineyards, between 700 and 850 metres altitude, in the northwest of Jumilla: old bush vine Monastrell planted in chalky soils, and Shiraz grown in sandy soils on younger, trellised vines. Vinification is carried out at the winery in the heart of the Juan Gil vineyard area. Fermentation takes place in stainless steel, temperature controlled, and the juice maintains contact with the skins during this 10-day process.

Spanish wine has always played an important part in the Boutinot portfolio. We work with over 50 wineries who provide great quality, value and interest from all corners of the country through the wines they create. For the past 15 years we’ve worked in partnership with a handful of these wineries on ‘own label’ projects, but just two years ago we decided to grow ‘Boutinot Spain’ … Taking our Spanish expertise and merging it with the experience of our Boutinot winemaking team seemed a natural progression in our Spanish story.

Championed by Eric Monnin, our Head Winemaker and Jean Wareing MW, our Spanish Project Manager we have travelled, tasted and in some cases asked the impossible to create a series of wines which hold true to our philosophy of honest, imminently drinkable, value for money wines which excite at every level.

Will match up with rich pasta dishes with salami or ham, or a premium, meat-rich, lasagna with layers of meatballs and slices of pepperami in the mix! Sunny weather? - perfect for barbecues too.
