This expression of Cabernet Franc is
lifted upon a pedestal of Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot, showing layers of concentrated
fruit and exotic spice, opulent aromatics and a plush sueded texture.
2007 Le Désir – 98 Points, Robert Parker, Jr., The Wine Advocate, February 2010
Available for pre-order by calling (800) 273-0177.
"A St.-Émilion look-alike, the 2007 Le Désir (44% Cabernet Franc, 44% Merlot, and the rest Cabernet Sauvignon and Malbec)
is close to perfection. Sweet, intoxicating aromas of licorice, tobacco leaf, incense, black currants, black cherries,
and bay leaves are followed by a wine with extraordinary concentration, a hint of toasty oak, full body, admirable
purity, and a multilayered personality. It begs for 5-8 years of cellaring, and should keep for 30+ years." – Robert Parker, Jr.
