WINE DESCRIPTION
Verite La Joie is a premium red wine produced by Verite Winery in Sonoma County, California. The wine is made from a blend of Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, and Cabernet Franc grapes sourced from the winery's estate vineyards in the Sonoma Valley. The vineyards are known for their unique terroir, which includes volcanic soils and a cool climate that allows for slow ripening of the grapes. The winemaking process involves careful selection of the grapes, hand sorting, and aging in French oak barrels for up to two years. The resulting wine is a complex and elegant blend with notes of black fruit, spice, and a long, smooth finish. Verite La Joie is a perfect choice for wine enthusiasts looking for a premium, high-quality wine with a unique sense of place.
NOTES FROM VINOVOSS SOMMELIER
Verite La Joie is a bold, full-bodied red blend from California's Alexander Valley.Its ripe, intense nose of dark fruits, herbs, and earth notes is complemented by a plush, velvety palate of black cherry, blackberry, cassis, and hints of dried tobacco. Rich and concentrated, this wine has a long, lingering finish with fine tannins.
