Vérité Le Désir is a prestigious Cabernet Franc-dominant red wine blend from Vérité, a celebrated Sonoma County, California winery inspired by the iconic wines of Saint-Émilion, Bordeaux. Each bottle is crafted by master winemaker Pierre Seillan and his daughter Hélène Seillan, who bring an Old World philosophy to Sonoma County's finest cool-climate micro-crus. This Costco offering comes as a pack of three 750ml bottles.

The wine is typically composed of approximately 80% Cabernet Franc, 17% Merlot, and 3% Malbec, delivering high-toned aromatics, profound structure, and a signature lingering iron-graphite minerality. Tasting notes include kirsch, potpourri, warm plums, wild blueberries, black raspberry, rose petals, violets, cedarwood, forest floor, chocolate box, cardamom, and star anise. The palate is medium to full-bodied with firm, fine-grained, exquisitely ripe tannins and bold freshness, with an alcohol content of approximately 13.9%. The 2017 vintage received a remarkable 98-point score from Robert Parker's Wine Advocate, 98 points from Vinous, and 98+ points from Jeb Dunnuck.
