Juan Gil Rosario Vera 2018

Description

Juan Gil Rosario Vera 2018 is an eloquent red wine, suffused with scents of red and black fruit, herbaceous undertones, and hints of cocoa. On the palate, it is flavorsome, delightful, and persistent. It reveals well-ripened tannins and an extensive finish, evocative of the forest floor.

Guía Peñín: “Colour: deep cherry; Aroma: dried herbs, creamy oak, black fruit, balsamic herbs; Flavour: powerful, ripe fruit, spicy, round tannins..” 93 Points

James Suckling: “Lovely violets, lavender, tea leaves and black pepper to this Rioja. A lively thread of acidity runs right through the center of the medium body, which ends grainy and tangy, though not particularly long. Drink now. (7/26/19)” 91 Points (2017)

Food pairing: Lamb charcuterie, medium and long cured cheeses, pasta bakes, spicy sausage dishes, grilled steaks, roast chicken.
