During this special evening, you will take a journey from the past to present, as you taste celebrated vintages of Vérité & Williams Selyem wines.

Following the tasting, enjoy an intimate multi-course dinner with specially selected wine pairing flights featuring Vérité & Williams Selyem wines throughout the evening.

Throughout the two decades after Williams Selyem Winery produced its first vintage of Pinot Noir in 1981, everyone at the winery has been as passionate about making the most luscious, flavorful wines as the crew who made that first vintage. Experience first hand the Williams Selyem motto – Make the best wines, from the best grapes, from the best growers – as showcased through their iconic wines and stories from Winemaker Jeff Mangahas about these famed vintages of past and present.

Vérité was founded in 1998 as a partnership between French winemaker, Pierre Seillan, and American wine visionary, Jess Jackson. Under Pierre’s leadership, Hélène Seillan has stepped into the role of assistant winemaker at the estate to usher in the next generation. Vérité utilizes a mosaic of more than 50 small, hillside estate vineyard parcels across four Sonoma County appellations to create the Vérité wines, carefully tailoring their winemaking techniques and oak selection to the character of each parcel. This diversity of site yields a range of unique wine profiles from which to build the architecture of the final three Bordeaux-style Vérité blends: La Muse, La Joie, and Le Désir. Over the last twenty years, Vérité wines have garnered seventeen 100-point scores from Robert Parker. Vérité wines are limited production, built for longevity, and crafted with purpose and integrity.

Don’t miss the incredible opportunity to taste award winning, celebrated vintages from the past to present, and learn more about these iconic wineries during this special, intimate insider experience!
