Composed of 82% Cabernet Franc, 12% Merlot and 6% Malbec, the 2018 Le Désir was aged for 16 months in 100% new French oak. Deep garnet in colour, it’s a little closed to start but soon opens up to reveal hints of kirsch, raspberry plus hints of cedar, crushed stone, bay leaves, Sichuan pepper and lavender with a touch of sandalwood. The medium to full-bodied palate has plenty of freshness to support the melange of preserved red and black fruits, textured by grainy tannins, finishing with a lingering peppery kick.
This version is a magnum bottle of 1.5 liter in wooden box. A collectors item.
