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 2009 is made up of 78% Cabernet Sauvignon, 9% Cabernet Franc, 9% Merlot, 2% Petit Verdot and 2% Malbec, and is incredibly rich, full-bodied and powerful yet remarkably well-balanced and elegant. Known for its exceptional longevity, this is only just entering its optimal drinking window.

The 2009 La Joie is a testament to the exceptional vintage it comes from, featuring a robust blend led by Cabernet Sauvignon. This wine captivates with its depth of flavor, structured tannins, and long-lasting finish. Its creation is a precise art, reflecting the dedication of Vérité Winery to produce Bordeaux-style wines that resonate with the unique characteristics of the Sonoma Valley. Aged in French oak barrels, the 2009 La Joie offers an expansive palate of black currants, cedar, and spice, underlined by a velvety texture that promises further complexity with age.
