Fans of the blockbuster Jumilla red Clio don't want to miss this outstanding bargain from the enigmatic Miguel Gil. As proprietor of Bodegas Juan Gil, Miguel has helped put this backwater Spanish wine region on the map with phenomenal Monastrell-based wines that elicit oohs and ahs from all who taste them. Bottled exclusively for USQ, the Albacea is crafted with 100% Monastrell (Mourvèdre) from a number of Gil's select vineyards. Appealing aromas of smoke-infused blackberry, cedar, and pepper lead into succulent fruit flavors balanced by a clean, fresh finish. The Albacea works well at parties, alongside lamb chops and burgers, and unfinished bottles can be kept corked in the fridge for at least 2 days of enjoyment.
