Verité, La Joie, 2013, 75cl Seasonal Tasting and warm biscuitsThe 2013 La Joie, which is 46% from Knights Valley, 32% from Chalk Hill and 22% from Alexander Valley, is a blend of 71% Cabernet Sauvignon, 16% Merlot, 8% Cabernet Franc and 5% Petit Verdot. Showing loads of graphite, cedar wood, charcoal, crme de cassis and forest floor, this may well turn out to be a 50+ year wine. It tastes like a great first growth Pauillac and has an amazing amount of complexity and richness. Drink Date: 2015 2065 Robert M.
