Another Beltramo's tasting. This one was of Robert Parker 95+ rated wines. The tasting included three whites that I am not reviewing here. They were all three good, but the reds were the draw so here goes quick notes.
The Le Desir was closed and low in fruit, really low in everything. Many of you will have heard the phrase that a wine is going through a "dumb" phase. This may have been the case here. Based on this tasting I could not recommend this wine to anyone at any price. It just never came to life.
Verite site is located here. You will note if you take a look through their wines that they have a history of great ratings. In the past I have had both Le Muse and La Joie and enjoyed them quite a lot, so I would not draw any big conclusions from this tasting.
In any case, last of six tasted on this day. I would be interested in trying it again a year from now and see what come out then.
