As dense and dark as it is gorgeously versatile, this Napa Cabernet from The Vice feels as perfectly suited to a casual burger as it would with filet mignon. In fact, it would serve to elevate either.
Winemaker Vance Rose is a Napa super-talent, and we’d drop anything to meet him for a burger and a glass.

When Rose coupled that expertise with The Vice’s insane vineyard sources, he stacked the deck in his favor. It’s a bet that’s paying off at far below the $150+ cost of entry that top Napa Cabernets command
