69% Cab 31% Cab Franc. Great nose. Floral and spice. Palate incredible. Great mouthfeel, chewy tannins and well balanced. Cherry, blackberry, espresso, chocolate, and baking spices. I only had one bottle. Wish I’d have kept for at least 5 more years. — 3 months ago

Great bottle, @Paul K. We did a tasting at Viader in ‘22 and I was impressed with all of their offerings. A friend describes this as “liquid cashmere,” and I think that’s spot on.

@Brandon T loved this wine. That’s a great way to describe it. Cheers!

This is a 2016 Viader Dare cabernet franc

1.5 hour decant (little cloudy sediment). A majestic dark garnet color. On the nose: subtle notes of raspberry, pepper, anise, chocolate, mint. Taste: 1st time trying...nice cab franc with smooth notes of plum, cedar, pencil lead, smokey dried herbs, and pepper raspberry finish. A nice start to the weekend! — 2 years ago

Yum!

Yum, but my picture/wine does not compare to your Atlas/pool wine from a day ago. Cheers!

@Tom Garland yea but this wine was probably better than the wine I had!

Viader tasting on Howell mountain. Stunning views of the valley and fun tour/tasting at this family owned winery. Nice pours too! The 2016 Viader is just starting to show off and is worth seeking out.

2011 Vintage Smelling like roses. Tasting like dried plums on a summer day....but it’s winter. Getting a little smoke in there but then again it could be the fire I have going. Wish I had one more bottle... — 5 years ago

Really nice blend. 48% cab sauv, 21% cab franc, 21% Syrah, 10% Malbec. Nose was blueberry, earth, pepper and a hint of vanilla. Smooth mid plate with a medium weight and good balance of fruit and acidity. Oak, blackberry and raspberry with pepper, spice and forest floor that lingered for a long time. Enjoyable. — 3 years ago

06 Viader - unfortunately kicked 07 Nickel and Nickel State Ranch - flat. 08 Hundred Acre Fortunate Son - third time’s a charm. Inky dark purple in the glass. Fresh roses on the nose with a hint of cayenne. Definitely a fruit bomb but has tons of depth and character. — 5 years ago
