99 points Parker - limited
In an historic moment, wine critic Robert Parker, Jr., of The Wine Advocate recently announced 98-99 point scores for Vérité’s three blends, Le Désir, La Joie and La Muse. Limited.
99 Points Jeb Dunnuck: "Revealing a deep but reflective purple color, the Verite 2021 La Muse is made with a slightly different philosophy and is the Bordeaux blend in the lineup. Based on 90% Merlot, 6% Cabernet Franc, and 4% Malbec, raised for 16 months in 95% new French oak, it offers a layered and complex profile, with detailed aromas of blackberry liqueur, mushroom earth, sweet tobacco, savory, lush herbs, and polished leather. The palate is vibrant and fantastic with pure and energetic red apple fruit, ripe acidity, refined ripe tannins, and a long, long finish. A stunning wine in every sense, it’s one for the ages. Drink 2027-2067."
96 Points Robert Parker: " The Verite 2021 La Muse is composed of 90% Merlot, 6% Cabernet Franc and 4% Malbec, and the wine was matured for 16 months in 95% new French oak. Although it’s youthfully shy on the nose, it can’t hide its jewel-like quality and offers bright flashes of violet, cast iron, cassis, dark plums and blackcurrant bud. The palate is surprisingly light on its feet, its concentrated flavors supported by lacy tannins and bright bursts of acidity. Pure and plush, it opens dramatically over several days and will be very long lived in the cellar. 2,500 cases produced."
Vérité produces wines without compromise, wines that reflect the terroir in which they are grown. The name Vérité comes from the French word for truth. The wines are a combination of old-world experience and new-world fruit. Vigneron Pierre Seillan, Vérité’s first and only winemaker, is a man who understands and appreciates the importance of the land. He is intimately involved in every step of the winegrowing process from bud break to bottling.
