As the Los Angeles Rams prepare to take on the Cincinnati Bengals in their hometown this Sunday for Super Bowl LVI, Los Angeles-based winemaker Malek Amrani is celebrating the historic moment with the perfect wine. Meet The Vice Wine Napa Valley’s limited edition 2019 Cabernet Sauvignon, Los Carneros “The Ram” to mark the occasion.
“Los Carneros (Spanish for The Rams) was the first established Sub-Appellation of Napa Valley in 1981,” says Malek Amrani, The Vice founder/winemaker. “The Ram is also my Zodiac sign, the truck that I drive, and perhaps my favorite Football Team. Los Carneros is mostly known for its Pinot Noir and Chardonnay wines. Batch #52 reflects the potential of Los Carneros Cabernet Sauvignon, the underdog of Napa Valley, to achieve a breakthrough in a region where Cabernet reigns King.”
Bright aromas of black cherry marmalade, violet, sandalwood and hazelnut are wrestling for your attention. The palate is bright and concentrated with plum and toffee flavors from the entrance to the mid-palate. Silky tannins linger to a long finish with caramel and chocolate. Drink now or hold if you can resist.
Put on your jersey and grab a few bottles while they last!
