(Paso Robles, CA)

100 % Cab Franc Crimson with a ruby red core, this wine boasts scents of dried strawberries, black cherries, bell pepper, and crushed gravel.

Richly textured with persistent flavors lingering long after every sip.

Victor Mendes- Owner

Victor Mendes has been the owner of Vienna Vintner, a boutique wine store located in Vienna, Virginia, for over 22 years. Victor’s love for wine comes from his family roots in Portugal. His parents, who came to Queens, NY in 1971, hail from Chaves, with a multi generational history of wine production.

Victor has traveled to many wine-producing areas around the world, visiting vineyards from Napa to Rioja, and even down in South Africa. He has taken part in Oregon’s famous Pinot Camp, where select wine buyers are invited for a week of fun and education about Oregon Pinot Noir production. 

Victor has found a unique niche with small production domestic wines that rival the quality of name brand wines at much higher price points, as well as, offering unique wines from around the world. He has relationships with over 30 different wine distributors that he’s cultivated throughout two decades in the wine industry.

Victor is known throughout the community not only for his intuitive palate and customer service, but also for his collaboration with many local organizations in their fundraising efforts. In 2016, Victor started producing his own wine under the brands of VIX and Straight Out of Paso.
