Wines

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. The 2008 is a sophisticated, elegant and powerfully driven blend of 71% Cabernet Sauvignon, 15% Merlot, 7% Cabernet Franc, 4% Petit Verdot and 3% Malbec.

The 2008 La Joie is a testament to the exceptional 2008 vintage in Sonoma County, expressing a superb balance of power, finesse, and complexity. Notes of blackcurrant, cedar, black cherry, and earth, with a robust tannic structure and a long, complex finish. Ranked among the top wines from Sonoma County, achieving high scores from wine critics.

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.
