In 2002 Miguel Gil co-founded one of the most ambitious quality projects in southern Spain, El Nido. With Australian winemaker Chris Ringland, Miguel established a tiny winery next to Juan Gil to produce just 2,000 cases from the best low yielding plots in the area. Crafting two award winning wines, Clio and El Nido from 44 hectares of 65-year-old Monastrell and 30-year-old .

The winery is in the Valle de la Aragona, Jumilla. The high altitude and long growing season in Valle de la Aragona, Jumilla, give freshness and brightness to the fruit and fine ripe tannins. The grapes are harvested in small baskets to prevent bruising, then undergo selection. Fermented and aged for 24 months in new French and American oak.
