Small Batch Wines for Every day Indulgences
11.16.21
The Vice Wine is a Napa Valley luxury wine brand made in small batches. Each batch is crafted from single grape varietals sourced from hand-selected vineyards that best express the grape varietal and the region that it comes from. Passionate labor, sustainable farming, long expertise of the wine industry, and a current understanding of the consumer’s wine trend is the result of Vice Wine.
They believe that the best wines in the world aren’t the most expensive ones. They thrive at providing the best quality wine at the best value.
Here are some of our favorites from their label:
2019 Pinot Noir Rose, Los Carneros
Summer rose sipping may be coming to an end soon, but rose as a Thanksgiving dinner pairing wine is coming up fast! The Vice's rose of Pinot Noir is from Carneros, Napa Valley, offering a California sunset color with aromas of red berries and spring flowers. The wine completely fills the pallet with mouth-watering savory flavors of crisp acidity, minerality, summer strawberries, wet stones, and a touch of orange blossom. Enjoy this dry rose guilt-free with 0 grams of residual sugar.
“The House” wines are The Vice’s expression of Napa Valley wines for everyday occasions. This batch was minimally crafted with one ingredient—Pinot Noir—and aged 10 months in French Oak barrels; making it a house wine easy to love on its own and a great companion to a variety of vices.
Rose, wild strawberry, and dark cherry accent the nose with a breeze of vanilla and coconut. Suave on the palate with focused minerality and solid power behind the red fruit core. Pomegranate, dried savory herbs, and chocolate lead to a fresh and juicy finish.
2019 Cabernet Franc, Los Carneros
Exclusive! Only available on thevice.com.
Red and blackberry fruit aromas leap from the glass accented with a trace of chili pepper. On the palate, the texture is at once light and dense. Bittersweet chocolate and cola interplay with a kiss of French Oak making a second taste irresistible. The finish lasts for several minutes so you can slow down a little if you must!
