Vérité was founded in 1997 by the late visionary Jess Jackson and long-time Bordeaux vigneron, Pierre Seillan. In just over 20 years, the winery has managed to forge a reputation for itself as one of the most consistent producers of elite level fine wine in California. They produce just three wines, La Muse, La Joie and Le Désir, all of which are based on the traditional varieties of Bordeaux.La Joie is made in the mould of the great wines of Pauillac and the Left Bank. 2007 was an incredible vintage and is particularly memorable for the fact that each cuvée has scored 100 points from The Wine Advocate. La Joie is an intense and powerful blend of 68% Cabernet Sauvignon, 15% Merlot, 8% Cabernet Franc, 5% Petit Verdot and 4% Malbec.

The 2007 Vérité La Joie is a testament to the exceptional vintage it hails from, characterized by its depth, structure, and complexity. This wine is a rich expression of Sonoma County's terroir, showcasing dark fruit flavors, balanced acidity, and elegant tannins. Aged in French oak barrels, it has evolved gracefully and offers a profound tasting experience. Notes of blackberry, cassis, and chocolate lead into a palate marked by dense dark fruits, a hint of spice, and smooth, structured tannins. The finish is long, with lingering notes of fruit and oak. Highly rated by wine critics, with numerous accolades and high scores in prominent wine publications.

La Joie is a powerful, Cabernet Sauvignon-dominated Bordeaux blend that reveals the depth and complexity of the Sonoma County terroir.

Vérité is a Sonoma County-based winery, known for its small-production, high-quality Bordeaux blend wines.
