The Vaquero Cellars label was inspired because of the history and Spanish legacy of Santa Barbara and San Luis Obispo Counties.  Our current production has been raised to 2000 cases with 5 excellent varietals.  Our first wine was a 2005 Syrah which is one of the rising stars of California.  We now have 5 different varietals, and will introduce 3 more in 2008.  We now include the 2005 Syrah; 2005 Cabernet Franc; 2006 Pinot; 2006 Sangiovese; and a 2006 Syrah Stolpman Vineyard. 

Great wine is attributed to great grapes and a masterful winemaker.  Jim Porter who is well known and respected on the Central Coast as a connoisseur of wines is our winemaker.  The Central Coast of California is producing some the finest fruit on the world market, and we only purchase our grapes from the best respected vineyards in our area.  Our wines reflect an attentive selection of vineyards and appellation, enabling us to showcase authentic fruit flavors with finesse and complexity.  We are dedicated to the creation of high end premium crafted wines.
