Somm Note

Winemaker Notes

The sublime color of the 2012 Le Desir shows the influence of Cabernet Franc with a brilliant, seductive ruby hue. The nose presents an expert balance of aromas of ripe red and black fruit, white spice, blond tobacco, and nutmeg. An expressive palate is revealed through flavors of nutmeg and spice. This is a wine with great finesse, a never-ending finish and extraordinary minerality.

Blend: 64% Cabernet Franc, 24% Merlot, 8% Cabernet Sauvignon and 4% Malbec

Professional Ratings

  • 95

    The 2012 Le Desir has a medium garnet color and woodsy, musky scents of mossy bark, fir needles and desiccated flowers. The palate has firm, velvety tannins, unexpectedly bright currant fruit and a long, tobacco-laced finish.
