Mad Micas Originals
Vineyard Mica
Vineyard Mica
Vineyard is a gorgeous color that doesn’t fit into any one category. It mimics the various colors of wine, berries, freshly fallen leaves and garnets. Unique and rich, Vineyard is a perfect, sophisticated winter color.
Tested in clear melt and pour soap, cold process soap and epoxy resin, we found each to show off different aspects of this lovely color.
Lab Notes: Several years ago, I took a trip with friends to visit a vineyard. That wine tasting was more than just an opportunity to try great wines; it was an experience that made me appreciate how much more there is to wine than the taste itself.
The people, the stories, and the connection to the land were all part of the magic that made each sip feel special.
I thought of that trip immediately when I finished the blend on this; not only does it remind me of the rich colors growing there, the backstory of winemaking reminds me of what we do here at Mad Micas.
CP Soap: Tested using 3 grams/pound of cold process soap batter.
Great in both epoxy resin and clear MP soap (usage in MP was ½ teaspoon per lb. of clear base).
The custom manufacturing process of these exclusive colors may result in slight variations from lot to lot.

Customer Reviews
Love them they are beautiful and work perfectly. Got my order quickly
We used this for our blackberry and sage soap. The color is stunning and works perfect in cold process soap.
A difficult colour to create on my own! Simply spectacular!
This color is seriously amazing. I was looking for a good maroon. I ordered a small 1oz bottle to test the color. Used in soap today. Back to order the 4oz! Amazing!
I was looking for a more realistic grape/burgundy color and you came through with vineyard! Gorgeous, and I can't say enough about your micas. You do one thing, and you do it very well!
