Description
“Le Désir” is the Cabernet Franc-led flagship blend from Vérité (Sonoma County, California). It leans heavily on Cabernet Franc, supplemented by Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon, and Malbec, depending on vintage. Vérité is known for its meticulous vineyard sourcing across micro-crus (Knights Valley, Chalk Hill, Alexander Valley, etc.), low yields, long aging in new French oak, and a consistent pursuit of elegance + power.
Tasting Notes
2012
COLOR:
Deep ruby / garnet color with strong influence of Cabernet Franc.
NOSE:
Aromas of ripe red & black fruits (blueberry, blackberry), woodsy notes (moss, bark, fir needles), and spice (camphor, nutmeg).
TASTE:
On the palate: firm (“velvety”) tannins, minerality, notes of dark fruit, tobacco, espresso, and a long, tobacco-laced finish.
2015
NOSE:
Rich wild berries (blackberry, cherry), red fruit, signature herbal lift from Cabernet Franc (violets, rose, some tomato vine / pea shoot herbs), spice, leather and earthy undertones, cigar box, red licorice.
TASTE:
Tannins are dense and fine-grained; there's precision and structure, strong mid-palate density, yet elegance.
2019
COLOR:
Purple/ruby hue.
NOSE:
Elegant and expressive, more floral & fragrant than outright muscle (though still powerful). Aromas of rose petal, cherry blossom, blackberry coulis, pomegranate, herbs (bay leaf, thyme), damp earth / truffle, well-integrated oak (spice, toast, maybe brown buttered toast).
TASTE:
On the palate: purity, fine tannins, balance between richness and freshness, very long and layered finish.

Food Pairing
Given their structure, depth, tannins, oak influence, herbal notes and aging potential, here are food pairing suggestions for these vintages:
Red meats: Beef ribeye, roast prime rib, filet mignon, or New York strip. Especially with char or sear to match tannins.
Game & richer meats: Venison, duck breast with berry reductions, lamb (especially with herbs like rosemary, thyme).
Mushroom and truffle dishes: Dishes using wild mushrooms (morel, porcini), truffle sauces, or rich earthy components.
Charcuterie / Cured meats: Salami, prosciutto, bresaola; also aged sausages with herbs.
Cheese: Aged hard cheeses (Comté, aged cheddar, Gruyère), or washed rind cheeses that have richness to stand up to the wines.
Herb / spice components: Dishes with herbs (bay leaf, thyme), spices (black pepper, tobacco / leather flavours in sauces), or enriched sauces (mushroom jus, demi-glace).
