Staglin Family Vineyard Salus Estate Cabernet Sauvignon – Napa Valley – Red – 2019:

 

Staglin’s Salus Cabernet Sauvignon: A Napa Valley Icon

The Salus Cabernet Sauvignon from Staglin Family Vineyard is a world-class wine, a pure expression of the historic Rutherford Bench, known for producing some of Napa Valley’s most compelling Cabernet. The ‘Salus’ line, named after the Roman goddess of well-being, is crafted with an uncompromising commitment to quality and is farmed organically and sustainably.

Tasting Profile & Experience

This prestigious Cabernet Sauvignon pours a deep, dark garnet. The nose is immediately expressive, bursting with black cherry, cassis, and rich blackberry, layered with notes of espresso, dark mocha, and fine cedar. On the palate, it is full-bodied and powerful, yet possesses a remarkable elegance. Expect a concentration of dense dark fruit framed by velvety, fine-grained tannins-the hallmark of the renowned ‘Rutherford Dust’ terroir. A racy freshness counterbalances the opulent fruit, leading to a long, complex, and age-worthy finish.

Pairing Suggestions & Service

To maximize your enjoyment, decant for at least an hour and serve at 60-65°F (16-18°C). This wine is built for classic American fine dining:

• Aged Prime Rib Roast with jus
• Grilled New York Strip Steak with maître d’hôtel butter
• Braised Short Ribs
