Spices, liquorice, plums, black cherries, mocha, cedar wood, subtle oak, smooth and velvety tannins, concentration, balance, and length. All class and finesse.

Notes: It shows great potential for aging. Drinks very well now and over the next 10–12 years. Matching perfectly with rice, all sorts of red and white meats (grilled, stewed, or roasted), poultry, smoked seafood, blue and cured cheeses, and casserole dishes.

THE WINERY

The Juan Gil family group's most recent project, Bodegas Morca in Campo de Borja, is the second winery in Aragón that is part of the group. The project began in 2014 with the successful launch of the small winery in the village of Borja, northwest of the province of Zaragoza (Aragón), in an area dominated by the Moncayo Mountain range. Currently, the bodega owns 120 hectares of vineyard, up from the 30 hectares at its beginning.
