THE JOURNEY BEGINS
A Passion
for Fine Wine
Our journey began with a spark and a shared passion for fine wines. Nearly 20 years ago, Andres Ibarra and Caren Rideau met, forging a relationship built on love and a deep appreciation for the art of winemaking. Together, they have cultivated not just a partnership, but a legacy that celebrates the beauty of wine and the connections it fosters.
WINEMAKER AND VINTNER
Andres Ibarra
Andres Ibarra and his family emigrated to the US from El Valle de Guadalupe of Jalisco, Mexico. Andres began pruning plants and picking grapes in the local vineyards at age 16, sacrificing teenage life to help his family. One day, Andres was in the fields and labor came to a halt as it began to rain, and he was sent to work inside the winery. While racking wine inside, Andres decided to taste the wine, made from grapes he harvested only one month earlier. It was in that moment he fell in love with making wine.​
WINEMAKER AND VINTNER
Caren Rideau
Caren Rideau moved from Phoenix, her hometown, to Los Angeles in search of more opportunity. After completing the interior design program at Arizona State University, she eventually founded her own studio, The Kitchen Design Group, located in Pacific Palisades.​ As her business grew into one of LA’s most unique and impressive residential design firms, Caren furthered her education in arts and culture. While traveling throughout Europe and South America, Caren developed her palette and love of food and wine.​
Love & Vines
Caren and Andres met in 2005, and they quickly discovered they share more in common than a passion for viticulture. Andres and Caren decided to chase their dream of starting a label and created Tierra y Vino.​ Together, they have cultivated not just a partnership, but a legacy that celebrates the beauty of wine and the connections it fosters.
