The development of the new and powerful firm Gil Family Estates started with the construction of the new winery Juan Gil in the area of Paraje de la Aragona, Jumilla. Years later, the Gil Family Estates project began with the aim of making signature wines. Subsequently, and over the years, a solid group has been formed. It is currently comprised by eight wineries under different denominations of origin, and the trade company Orowines. This way, Juan Gil Bodegas Familiares managed to combine a wide portfolio of Spanish wines with very different features and origins under one single brand. Through its wineries, Juan Gil Bodegas Familiares decidedly advocated for native varieties from the different and varied Spanish winegrowing regions. It especially makes a greater effort in the conservation of those old vineyards that make up the rich, although increasingly scarce, heritage of unique varieties in the different areas where they have their wineries. The different oenologists of each of the wineries are specialised in the production with the typical varieties of the areas, and the wines show the characteristics of the vineyards and areas where they come from. Currently, Juan Gil Bodegas Familiares is comprised of the wineries Juan Gil in Jumilla; Atalaya in Almansa; Ateca in Calatayud; Can Blau in Montsant; Shaya in Rueda; Tridente in Castilla y León; Orowines in Rías Baixas and Jumilla; and Lagar Da Condesa in Rías Baixas.
History of the winery
The winery Juan Gil, the first one, was founded in Jumilla in 1916 by Juan Gil Jiménez. Today, the fourth generation, the children of Juan Gil González and Rosario Vera Candela, are the ones who direct the winery group. However, due to the premature death of their father, Rosario was in charge of giving continuity to the family project. Juan Gil Guerrero, son of the founder, and then his grandson Juan Gil González, were those who improved and consolidated the winery, applying the traditional business know-how passed down from parents to children.
The winery is located on the road to Fuente Álamo, in the area of Paraje de la Aragona, in the surroundings of Jumilla. Its vineyards, next to the winery, allow the exhaustive monitoring of the evolution of the grape. The vineyards are located between 700 and 850 metres above sea level, on sandy-calcareous soils, stony on the surface and very poor in nutrients, with a great capacity to retain the little rainfall they have. This is the kingdom of the Monastrell, a typical variety of the region, present exclusively or in a very high percentage in all their wines. Along with the old vines, which are over 40 years old, and some other younger ones of the Monastrell variety, we can also find the varieties Syrah, Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot andPetit Verdot, which perfectly adjust to the conditions of the land, and provide intense shades of spices and fruit.
The winery has all the modern means for the production of its wines. Currently, Bartolomé Abellán is the oenologist of the winery and the one in charge of coordinating the rest of the technical management teams of the GFE group.
Work philosophy
The policy of Bodegas Juan Gil is clear: low-yield old vineyards, some of them almost century-old, that produce concentrated wines, with body, but very balanced, with a lot of fruit. Made with care and know-how, they are amiable and very pleasant to drink, identified with their area and their terroir. Bodegas Juan Gil believes that wine is made in the vineyard, so the location of the winery and the vineyard allows the exhaustive monitoring of the grapes’ evolution, a necessary condition to achieve great wine. All of this, alongside low-yield old vineyards, where very small bunches and berries with great concentration are achieved, manual harvesting in small boxes, and a later selection of bunches and grapes at the entrance of the winery. However, at Juan Gil they also understand that the new way of making wine needs cutting-edge technology, such as rigorous control of the temperature in winemaking, stainless steel deposits and excellent hygienic conditions throughout the process, which ensure the quality standards of their wines each year.
