Expert Reviews
This wine is exciting. Its inception came when Jess Jackson asked Pierre Seillan to experiment with Cabernet Sauvignon after finding success with Verité's Merlot-based La Muse wine. The cuvée, sourced for numerous plots throughout four appellations, yielded what Seillan called ‘La Joie’ - joy on his nose and palate. Every whiff and every sip reveals something new: violets, tobacco, white pepper, dried herbs, raspberry, and so much more. No matter how many layers you peel back, another one is underneath. Wildly fresh with grippy tannins that grab your attention in a good way, this wine is multi-dimensional. Simply excellent.
The purity of fruit with currants, spices and flowers is very impressive, as is the long, creamy texture. Full-bodied with medium, round tannins and a fresh finish. Oyster and iodine notes come through. Excellent. Drink after 2026.
The 2019 La Joie is striking on the nose with its pure, alluring scents of violet and iron. As it spends time in the glass, it gains intensity, blossoming to aromas of crème de cassis, mint chocolate, licorice, truffle and softening new French oak spices. The palate is bursting with concentrated flavors characterized by energetic acidity rather than weight or extraction. It features tremendously velvety tannins and a very long finish with ringing graphite and violet tones.
