Strebel Creek Winery — Local services in Oklahoma City

Can't express enough the wonderful time we had with Dr. and Mrs. Strebel. Our caravan of 12 arrived en masse and admittedly low on expectations following our previous stop at another local winery. We entered through an abundantly and tastefully stocked gift shop. A large "dining table" style area was centered in the gift shop for tasting as well as a small bar setting in a back room. Since the table would not seat everyone, we elected to have the ladies sit at the bar and the gentlemen stand behind. The room at first felt little more than a storage room with a few photos and framed newspaper articles. It was an unassuming personal setup. Based on our previous stop and a couple side glances confirmed it felt like we were about to be disappointed again. Dr. and Mrs. Strebel worked together to bring their wines out of the chiller and suddenly without pause and little fanfare Dr. Strebel said hello and for the next 40 minutes enthralled our troupe with great stories of local and personal history, wine making history, espousing his more than four decades of wine making experience. He had us laughing and enamored the entire time. While Dr. Strebel regaled us with his story telling Mrs. Strebel would poke her head around the corner and put a punctuation on his statement or would call him out if she thought his story went a bit over the top. It was wonderful to watch this couple interact, play off each other and throw a barb or two as would be expected for a couple who've been married for 60 years. It was simply the single best wine tasting experience I have had to date. The wines were very good, and I have found a new appreciation for Oklahoma wine making. They even invited us to walk across the old bridge in front of their home. That bridge is a center point of their winery logo and topic of a couple of his stories. My wife and I walked out with half a case of new wines for our long trip home to Arizona. I suspect we will return one day soon to this exceptional and...

I planned a visit to Strebel Creek Vineyard because the name of winery is my (not so common) last name (and I will mention that I am no relation to these Strebel’s). I fully expected to pick up a couple of bottles of wine for decoration and gifts, however little did I know, I was in for a real treat! Although the proprietors were out of town, Suzy welcomed us with a big smile and her fun personality. She gave us a tour of the winery, told us its history, then offered us a tasting. The wines were delicious! Each one I tried I liked better than the one before. The price point was incredible, clearly priced so their customers can afford to enjoy their quality wines. The boutique gift shop was darling, and the shopping continued. The winery is set alongside “the creek” and is absolutely beautiful. There is a sitting area with tables/chairs to relax outside and enjoy a glass of wine (I recommend Firehouse Red). Strebel Creek Vineyard is truly a hidden gem in Oklahoma City, one not to be missed, regardless of your...

We had a party of 12, and the majority of the couples were from Arizona and love wine tasting. We had visited another local winery and had a very lackluster experience. We loved meeting Dr. Strebel and his lovely wife! He made us feel like family during the tasting and he told us fun stories along the way! This was a five star experience and we all left with bottles of wine! Thank you for showing us a lovely time at your beautiful winery. We’ll...
