Vice Versa Winery Owner, Samantha Breton

Born and raised on the south shore of Montreal, Samantha is a pharmacist by trade. Her original encounter with great wine was during her first date with Patrice in 2011 when they shared a bottle of Château Lafleur 1982. She naturally connected with the science of the craft and began her own fervent journey in the world of wine.

Samantha and Patrice moved to Napa Valley full time in 2013, and married soon after. By 2019 she was so involved in winery operations that she ended her pharmacy practice to focus on Vice Versa. Samantha’s a huge foodie, and enjoys cooking, baking, and long-distance running.

Join the Pappas Bros. Steakhouse Houston Galleria sommelier team as they partner with Vice Versa Winery from Napa Valley and showcase some of Napa Valley’s most serious and compelling wines. Owner Samantha Breton will lead guests through a dazzling lineup of current releases paired with Pappas Bros.’ world-class cuisine.

 

Founded in 2003 by Patrice Breton, Vice Versa has sourced fruit from Napa’s most prestigious vineyards and utilized world-class winemakers such as Philippe Melka and Maayan Koschitzky to craft multiple 100-point wines that have enthralled collectors and connoisseurs alike.

 

 

Come enjoy a rare first taste of extraordinary Cabernet Sauvignon and learn why these wines have earned their exalted reputation over the past 20 years.
