Here’s a bit more about this amazing team!

THE VICE WINE

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. The Vice Wine is a result of passionate labor, sustainable farming, deep expertise of the wine industry, and a current understanding of the consumer’s wine trend. Something to note is that all wines are Vegan, and they use minimal intervention in the vineyard and the cellar.

The Vice Wine is about as personal of a brand as it gets. Everything is done by the founders - Malek Amrani and his wife Torie Greenberg. They drive the truck to get the fruit, crush, bottle, and label; they do everything by hand when possible. They also design the labels, work the market, and sell the wine.

The Vice believes 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.
