9.0

This is a very nice and easy drinking Pinot Noir from Carneros.

Showing red and black fruits with oak, licorice, light vanilla, tobacco, chocolates, coffee and peppercorn.

Medium bodied with medium acidity.

Dry on the palate, soft and smooth. Fruit forward and fresh.

Good right out of the bottle and good by itself or with food. I gave it a light chill and paired it with light appetizers.

13.8% alcohol by volume.

90 points.

Big cassis emerged but only on the second day. I was so confused by the presentation on Day1, but it was just tight. And I mean vice-like. — 3 months ago

Love love love these wines. Cannot say enough praises. Vice Versa 2018 Houyi vineyard is ready to drink now and could also cellar 10+ years. Dreamy. — 4 months ago

Butter butter butter! Warm dark fruits with a balanced start and even smoother finish. Raspberry, blackberry, light jam, leather, with a hint of allspice. June 1, 2021 berns with Tara. — 2 months ago

The Vice Wines Howell Mountain The Coyote Cabernet Sauvignon 2018 Napa Valley, California


It's time for my #FridayCabernetfix. Here is a delicious one from Napa Valley.

Deep ruby in color with a reddish rim.

Strong nose of blackberries, black plums, raisins, cooked cherries, vanilla, licorice, cedar, tobacco, chocolates, coffee, earth, light vegetables, herbs, graphite and peppercorn.

Full-bodied and smooth, with medium acidity and long legs.

Dry and fruity on the palate with blueberries, black currants, cherries, vanilla, oak, licorice, spices, chocolates, tobacco leaf, coke, light vegetables, bitter herbs and light earth.

Medium finish with fine grained tannins and spices.

This is a very tasty Cabernet Sauvignon from Napa Valley. Showing nice complexity with a nice mouthfeel. Elegant and fruit forward.

This Single Vineyard is still young, but already approachable. A nice wine with good potential. Would be nice to revisit it in 5 years.

Good right out of the bottle, and better after 3 hours of airtime.

Good by itself or with food. I paired it with cheeses, olives and crackers.

100% Cabernet Sauvignon grapes were grown at 2,000 feet of elevation. Aged in French oak barrels for 22 months. Unfiltered and unfined.

14.6% alcohol by volume.

92 points.

This is unexpectedly nice. Paid $36 and this is well worth it. Young but well integrated already. Nice dark fruits and vanilla flavors. Really glad I bought this — 4 months ago

A classic VV from Patrice and co, with lots of tannic structure and smooth notes of pack and dark fruit. I intentionally opened this bottle VERY young but enjoyed it with friends all the same! — 5 months ago
