Vérité Winery Profile


Vérité Winery, nestled in Sonoma County, California, is a world-class producer of Bordeaux-inspired wines. Founded in 1998 by Jess Jackson and Pierre Seillan, the winery is celebrated for its terroir-driven philosophy and unparalleled craftsmanship. Seillan, Vérité's winemaker, employs his "micro-cru" approach, vinifying and aging fruit from individual vineyard blocks separately to highlight the unique characteristics of Sonoma’s diverse soils and microclimates. The result is a collection of meticulously blended wines—La Joie, La Muse, and Le Désir—each showcasing a distinct Bordeaux varietal focus and reflecting timeless elegance and balance. Vérité wines have received critical acclaim, earning numerous 100-point scores and establishing the winery as one of the leading producers of fine wine in California.

 

2018 Vérité Le Desir Tasting Note

 

2018 Le Désir has a dark inky appearance with a violet hue that extends to the rim. The compelling characteristics of Cabernet Franc are expressed on the nose and palate with flavors of crunchy cranberry, ripe raspberry, red currant, dried sage, crushed mint, and cinnamon bark, followed by spice cake, subtle vanilla liquor, and singed toast. The persistent finish and bright acidity suggest the wine will continue to evolve in the cellar for many years to come.

Composition
82% Cabernet Franc, 12% Merlot, 6% Malbec
