More about 2019 Staglin Family Vineyard Salus Estate Cabernet Sauvignon Staglin Family Winery sits on an alluvial fan at the southwestern edge of Rutherford, where vines were first planted in the mid-1860s by some of Napa Valley's first settlers. Today, their Cabernet Sauvignons are some of the most distinct and powerfully compelling wines produced in the valley, setting a precedence for the region, with their flagship wines fetching around $300 per bottle. Winemaker Fredrik Johansson honed his craft working alongside Thomas Rivers Brown at Outpost and as the assistant winemaker at Schrader and Maybach. The 2019 Salus is 99% Cabernet Sauvignon with 1% Cabernet Franc all from the estate vineyard and represents top-level winemaking and farming, priced less than you'd expect for a wine of this remarkable pedigree.
