Father's Day - Focus On La Vaquera
Terri Striegel's Mother at Father
In our series to celebrate Father's Day, we turn to our very own Terri Striegel, who will tell us a little about her dad, and how he influenced her life.
"When I was a senior in high school, my dad did research on the best job opportunities for women. Knowing that I enjoyed math, he suggested that I study accounting in college. He knew that I approached situations in a very "black and white, no gray" manner down to the smallest detail. I am proudly the daughter of a Christian, army artilleryman."
-Terri Striegel
Does your dad love big red wines? If so, we encourage you to give him the gift of our La Vaquera.

Ripe blackberries and currants, fruit compote, pie spices, and caramel jump from the glass of this effusive wine. This cowgirl doesn’t hold anything back. It fills your senses with dark fruits layered with more subtle and complex notes of tobacco and fresh bread. In the mouth, this wine has a powerful entry with firm tannins and ripe fruit balanced by a bright acidity that carries this wine to a long and dense finish.

Get to Know the Alpha Mare
We take an exceptional amount of pride in our Alpha Mare wines. That is because we take an extraordinary amount of care while producing them. With super small production levels, we can scrutinize every detail that goes into these wines.
We laboriously barrel-ferment our Alpha Mare Red, a co-fermentation of Cabernet Sauvignon with a bit of Malbec, Petit Verdot, and Petite Sirah. This intensifies color, improves oak integration and creates complexity. We make our Alpha Mare White to age, modeled after the white wines of Bordeaux, this wine is a blend of Sauvignon Blanc clones and aged an extra year in special light-toast barrels from the Bertrange forest in France. This gives the wine exceptional depth and complexity.
Listen to what Master of Wine and Editor in Chief of The Wine Advocate, Lisa Perotti-Brown has to say about our 2015 Alpha Mare Red:
"...the deep garnet-purple colored 2015 Alpha Mare is youthful with black and red currants, underbrush and black pepper notes plus wafts of bay leaves and cedar. Full, muscular, firm and chewy in the mouth, it has appealing freshness and an earthy finish. Give it a couple of years in bottle and drink it over the next 15+" (92+ points)
This wine has now had a few years stored in our optimal temperature-controlled cellar, and now it is ready for you.

Red Mare Wines 2014 La Vaquera Scores 93 Points & a Double Gold Metal
At the 2019 American Fine Wine Competition, our 2014 La Vaquera not only received 93 Points, but earned a Double Gold Award. These intense and lush flavors we get from the lean soils, namely in Calistoga, allowed us to find the "just right" window of physiological maturity and concentration of flavors. This wine is a blend of our richest, darkest and juiciest wines. Petite Sirah, Petit Verdot and Malbec and make up the main voice of the blend.

Red Mare Wines 2015 Alpha Mare Red Scores 95 Points & A Double Gold Metal
At the 2019 American Fine Wine Competition, our 2015 Alpha Mare Red not only scored 95 Points, but won a Double Gold Award.
TASTING NOTES:
This wine opens with a generous full and complex nose constructed of vanilla, cedar, graphite and black currant. Warm and comforting aromas of shortbread, warm blackberry pie and flint keep one coming back to this wine again and again. In the mouth the wine has lots of generosity but also lots of tension. Fine grained tannins mingle with a firm acidity to lift the wine in the palate and gives it a sense of energy. The tannins settle on the finish and lead the wine to a pleasing bloom of rich dark fruit.
This wine is one you want to stock up in your cellar for years to come and is sold in a beautiful 6-Pack.
