Viognier Vérité

The grapes for Vérité come from very low yielding plots that benefit from the cooling effect of the nearby Orb river and Cevennes mountain range. We only use selected juice from the press in order to ensure a pure, delicate flavour and enhance the elegance of the cuvée.

The selection process continues in the cellar as selected barrels are tasted many times with the objective of selecting only the best for this wine.

Tasting notes

The cuvée is a pure expression of the Viognier grape with aromas of white peaches, apricot and honeysuckle flowers. The palate is generous yet well balanced with well integrated oak that does not mask any of the pure Viognier character but rather adds to the structure. Vérité has a lingering opulent finish.

Press extracts

"Very full, opulent and ripe with so much flavour it almost seems to glow. It has the signature viognier notes of honeysuckle and white peaches, underscored bu the weight that fermenation in oak barrels has given it..."

Victoria Moore, the Guardian UK

"This is a top flight southern french Viognier from Laurent Miquel, who producesa rich, dry Languedoc white with aromas of honeysuckle, banana and peach aromas and a subtle kiss of oak rounding out the mango flavours."
