SALUTE!!

To Your Health!

One 1.5L 2005 Staglin Family Cabernet Sauvignon

When you give someone the toast, "Salute!" or “Salud!” you are saying "To your health!"  

“We are proud of our ability to turn wine into good deeds through many important charities that support health and well-being,” says Shari Staglin of Staglin Family Vineyards.

Offered here is a magnum of Staglin’s flagship Cabernet Sauvignon, praised by E. Robert Parker:

"….Staglin’s primary red wine is their estate Cabernet Sauvignon, which comes from their beautifully manicured and cared-for vineyards in the hillsides of Rutherford. None other than David Abreu looks after the viticulture, and of course that means yields are frightfully low. The 2005 Cabernet Sauvignon Estate has a Bordeaux-like, cedary nose intermixed with black currants, crushed rocks, smoke, and earth. The wine has beautiful texture, lots of layers, depth, richness, and a long finish. The overall impression is one of elegance and restraint, but without sacrificing richness. This wine will evolve nicely for at least two decades.”

Many thanks to the Staglin Family, who work and live diligently for what they value most: love of family and friends, stewardship of the planet, and support for the community.
