Winemaker Notes

"...since we purchased [our vineyard] in 1985, 1998 was by far the scariest growing season. Some of the old timers here in the Napa Valley said they never saw a worse season. Those of us on the Valley floor and the benchlands (where we are -- the Rutherford Bench), however, were lucky. There was a very cool summer with rainstorms in the fall, during and just prior to our usual harvest time. Most of us were resigned to a bad vintage. But then, miraculously, the weather changed and we got several warm sunny days, which lasted long enough to ripen our grapes, for those of us who werent in the mountains. The earlier cool weather had worked in our favor because it lengthened the growing period, thereby allowing the flavors to develop fully. Many say the vintage is actually better than the 1997. We are struck by the full velvety middle of the Cabernet and by the approachability of the wine at a young age. It still has the soft tannin structure which will allow it to age well past twenty years."

Staglin Family Vineyard The Staglin Family, 2021 Winery Image

Founded in 1985 by Shari, Garen, Brandon and Shannon, Staglin Family Vineyard takes pride in the tradition of family ownership and participation. With an uncompromising commitment to quality, their mission is to produce world-class wines that reflect the distinctive character of this historic Rutherford Bench estate. As stewards of this land, they farm the vineyard organically, tap into their solar fields for power and produce the wines in a state-of-the-art underground production facility. The Staglins are passionate about their business, their land, their philanthropy and for the meaningful relationships they develop with each passing day. They hope this passion is evident when you enjoy their wines.

In addition to the flagship Staglin Family Vineyard label, they also produce a Cabernet Sauvignon and a Chardonnay under the Salus label. Named after the Roman goddess of health and well-being, they donate 100% of the proceeds from the sales of these wines toward fundraising for mental and brain health research, a cause that is very near and dear to our hearts. Over the last 30 years, they have raised over $513 million dollars for this charity.
