VÉRITÉ - LE DÉSIR, 2010

COMTÉ DE SONOMA

All wines of VÉRITÉ - All wines of Foreign wines - All wines
“the 2010 Le Desir is soft and rich. As Pierre Seillan said, the huge heat wave at the end of September seems to have made the 2010 Verite wines more approachable and front end-loaded than usual. This effort displays lots of black currant and black cherry fruit along with hints of asphalt, incense and licorice. The tannins are ripe and well-integrated, and the wine is round, full-bodied and generous.” - Robert Parker 93/100

History and anecdotes
Founded in 1997, the Vérité estate was created after the Jackson family and Pierre Seillan, a winemaker from Bordeaux, met. The combination between the French vineyard skills and the Californian soil richness from the Sonoma Valley made the creation of this exceptional wine possible.Vérité wines got 100 Parker points 13 times.
