Bodegas La Purisima 2006 Old Hands Monastrell

 

Yelca $11. A bit heavy and raisiny, but still this wine gets it right. The body, nose and everything else about it is rich and robust, but while it pushes candied fruit to the brink, it draws back and showcases brandied cherry, toffee, chocolate and other rewarding flavors in a good way. Sticky and sweet for sure, but not unctuous or cloying.
