Veritas Vineyards & Winery Veritas Reserve 2023 Review
For Veritas’ Reserve wines, the head winemaker and team sample every barrel in the cellar to shape the best blend for each vintage. For the 2023 bottling, Cabernet Franc and Merlot take the lead. This classic Virginia blend offers blackberries, cocoa, and autumn leaves on the nose with a hint of savory aged balsamic. The palate brings deep, juicy fruit notes with a grippy edge that provides structure.
