Vérité Le Désir 2016
Descripción
Sofisticado y delicado a la vez, Le Désir es un vino del Nuevo Mundo fuera de serie, que bien podría haber nacido en pleno corazón de Burdeos. Un coupage de Cabernet franc, completado por Merlot y Malbec, que roza la perfección, si bien necesita tiempo para revelar todos sus matices. Fruta negra madura, con chocolate, toques de canela y clavo, junto a una pronunciada mineralidad en boca y una maravillosa frescura que lleva a un final increíblemente persistente.

Opinión de los críticos
Composed of 82% Cabernet Franc, 12% Merlot and 6% Malbec, the very deep purple-black colored 2016 Le Désir is a little closed to begin, opening out to reveal absolutely stunning scents of potpourri, roses and orange peel over a core of crushed blackcurrants, black cherries and dark chocolate with touches of cinnamon stick and cloves plus a waft of forest floor. Medium to full-bodied, the palate is exquisitely delicate and refined, with super ripe, fine-grained tannins and wonderful freshness, finishing with epic persistence. 3,500 cases produced.
The 2016 Le Desir checks in as 82% Cabernet Franc, 12% Merlot, and 6% Malbec. Readers looking for world-class Cabernet Franc should beg, borrow, or steal to get hold of a bottle of this. Incredible floral, violet, forest floor, lead pencil, and cassis notes all flow to a medium to full-bodied red that’s flawlessly balanced, has ultra-fine tannins, and a finish that won’t quit. More intellectual and elegant than the La Joie, it’s still a wine of incredible intensity and class that builds incrementally on the palate, has an exotic, singular character, and the class to evolve for 30 years or more.
Aromas of dust, currants and black olives. Full body and round, chewy tannins. This is soft and round textured. Juicy and flavorful at the end. Try after 2022.
Black-cherry aromas dominate the nose, while the palate is broad and lush but exuberant, showing energy and flair. It's concentrated, of course, but also fleshy, with approachable upfront fruit, with delicate acidity giving a long poised finish. Drinking Window 2019 - 2035.
