2004 Juan Gil Jumilla Red

[Glass_A_Day]

A huge powerful nose jumped out of the bottle when I poured it. Then the swirl and I thought I found the best $11 wine in a long time. Then I sipped it and... and... nada. Gorgeous nose, fantastic color, but not much on the palet. It did come around a bit but never got any king of finish. Interesting enough and gives me an excuse to make my first post in the Spanish area. The grape I never heard of. It's called Monastrell.
