La Vérité – La Joie 2014 – Sonoma

Beautiful and precise nose, racy, deep and that offers a multi-layered side. The nose invites you to take your time, to think. It reveals notes of blackberry, violet and small notes of juicy/pulpy blue fruits associated with touches of camphor, flowers, a discreet almost pistil hint as well as a subtle hint of pine and almond. The palate is elegant, nicely fresh, precise, round, juicy, bright as well as delicate and powerful at the same time. On the palate this wine expresses beautiful notes of bright cherry, pulpy plum and small notes of cornflower associated with touches of fleshy blackcurrant, fleshy raspberry, fresh flowers, pistil as well as a discreet hint of cardamom and almond. Tannins are melted. What purity and brilliance of the fruit! A three-dimensional side as much on the nose as on the palate.
