2023 Monastrell 'La Purísima', Bodegas la Purísima

Murcia, Spain

This wine is a deep, alluring purple in the glass, boasting aromas of blueberry, wild raspberry, and liquorice with hints of violet and allspice. On the palate, it is full-bodied, with an inviting richness. Notes of toasted cedar and nutmeg are neatly integrated with red berry fruit. Silky mouthfeel and soft, ripe tannins are balanced by the wine’s juicy acidity.

The grapes come from D.O. Yecla in eastern Spain on the Murcia Plateau, where the vines are planted at an altitude of 700 metres and benefit from excellent diurnal temperature differences. The hot summer days are tempered by cool nights, which produces balanced wines.

Bodegas La Purísima was founded in 1946 by several farmers who joined forces to improve the quality of Yecla wines. Their determination and desire to produce great wines led them to receive the title of Denomination of Origin Yecla in 1975. The vineyards are located in eastern Spain on the Murcia Plateau, and the wines are vinified in a modern, state-of-the-art winery, installed with cutting edge technology to ensure the wines showcase the best of the terroir from the D.O. The young and dynamic team produce vibrant and fruity wines from local grape varieties which are excellent value for money.

The grapes were sorted to ensure only the highest quality, healthy fruit was vinified. Fermentation took place in stainless steel tanks with wild yeasts at controlled temperatures of 23°C to retain the purity of fruit and varietal characteristics. Daily bâtonnage increased texture and complexity in the wine, which was aged in stainless steel tanks to maintain the freshness and without any influence of oak to allow the Monastrell varietal characteristics to shine through.
