Description
EL NIDO 2022 is Bodegas El Nido’s flagship single-vineyard red from Jumilla, led by Cabernet Sauvignon and blended with Monastrell. A collaboration between the Gil family and Australian winemaker Chris Ringland, the project helped bring international attention to the region’s premium wines; this small release comprises just 4,600 bottles.
Tasting Notes
Deep and intensely dark in the glass, it opens with cassis, blackberry, blueberry and black cherry, layered with roasted pepper, Mediterranean herbs and hints of espresso, dark chocolate, smoke, tobacco and spice. New oak is prominent, balanced by lively freshness and a subtle mineral edge.
Production
The Cabernet Sauvignon comes from around 12 hectares of vines planted in 1986 in Jumilla, southeastern Spain. The 70% Cabernet Sauvignon and 30% Monastrell blend is fermented in stainless-steel tanks, then matured for approximately 23 months in new French and American oak. Harvesting details are not specified.
Food & Serving
Serve at around 16–18°C, rather than too warm. Its concentration and firm tannins suit dry-aged rib-eye, côte de boeuf, lamb, braised beef, game and aged Manchego; charcoal-grilled dishes are especially complementary. Give the young wine a few hours in a decanter, or allow it time to open in a large glass.
Producer
Bodegas El Nido is a joint project between the Spanish Gil family and Australian winemaker Chris Ringland. Their work has helped reshape international perceptions of Jumilla, establishing the winery as a source of ambitious, powerful wines. EL NIDO is its Cabernet-led flagship, distinct from the more Monastrell-focused CLIO.
