Philosophy
French for “truth,” the wines of Vérité result from a confluence of old world experience
and new world fruit. Each is an amalgam of distinct components harvested from small
vineyard blocks (micro-crus), resulting in a carefully considered convergence of grape
varieties, climate, soil exposition and winemaking technique. Vigneron Pierre Seillan
refers to this conjunction as droit du sol , “right of the soil.”

Tasting Notes
A wine that is concentrated black fruits in a glass, it is very spiced, dense, complex and
long with discreet oak notes. The bouquet and the palate will continue to develop over the
next 5-10 years.
