Aromas here are reflective of the warmer vintage, with honeyed beeswax, Gewürztraminer-like spicy florals, ripe stone fruit and the suggestion of fresh cut straw. Once in the mouth, these characters are balanced with lifted, delicate and complex notions of melon and peach tea. The beautiful arc is grounded by an undercurrent of fleshy roundness and warmth creating a lovely mid-palate retention which resolves into a clean uplifting finish. This complex and mercurial wine will easily carry you from aperitif through an entire meal seamlessly. – September 2023

Red Mare Wines Winery

Career sales professional Jim Striegel and accomplished winemaker Anne Vawter teamed
up in 2007 to realize their dream of creating a unique, old-world wine. A mutual friend
noticed their complementary talents and suggested they might make a good blend. With
a core mission of discovering premium vineyard sites to deliver uniquely luxurious wines
at great prices, they set out to discover those hidden gems in the Napa Valley.

Anne christened the brand Red Mare after her horse, Paradigm. Paradigm was Anne's
bonus, given to her during her time as Assistant Winemaker at Paradigm Winery in
Oakville. Paradigm and Anne built a strong and unique bond, and Paradigm's spirit
inspired our dedication to respect the site, the fruit, and the untouched natural beauty of
a wine.
