Exceptional cabernet off the beaten path
Oct 2019
My daughter and I were fortunate enough to be able to visit on a very busy Friday when the winery was not only in the midst of production but also preparing for its annual Harvest Party - we were delighted to be able to be worked in during the midst of an extremely busy time.
This is a gem of a winery, located in Rutherford just off the main highway. It’s beautiful, with incredible views from the tasting room and caves. When we visited grapes had been harvested very early in the morning, so stemming and sorting was taking place just outside the caves while inside full production was well underway. The winery stores in 100 % french oak barrels - one time use - and the resulting enhancement to the nose and taste of the wine is WOW - just beautiful.
We tasted a Chardonnay which was bright, fresh and so different from others we’ve enjoyed. It was delicious. Our tasting also included three cabs representing the Salus line as well as their reserve. All three were exceptional. If you enjoy premier reds this winery makes them, and makes them incredibly well. It’s also small production - around 5,000 cases a year, so there is attention to detail here that shows in the quality of the wines. They also produce olive oil, which we were able to taste mixed with some herbs and almonds.
We are very impressed with the family’s commitment to mental and brain health, which they have supported - and continue to support - to the tune of hundreds of millions of dollars.
Dedication to exceptional quality wines, commitment to the well being of others — this is a very special winery and family. We are looking forward to enjoying their wines at home as new wine club members.

We loved the tour of the vineyards as we walked to the caves for our tasting. Fabulous wines with some delicious cheeses make this a winery to visit.

Staglin is a legendary vineyard and t does not disappoint in person. Jaime gave us a phenomenal tour of the property and we tasted some incredible wines from their collection. Highly recommend Staglin on your next Napa trip!

First time At Staglin Family Vineyard... Awesome!!!
Nov 2017 • Couples
This beautifully decorated vineyard and tasting room is first class all around. By appointment only, we had the best time here in their wide open, private tasting room that over looks the vineyards and to the other mountains and neighboring wineries.
Leading our tour was JAIME OROZCO, he is the wine expert here with the knowledge, passion, and thrive for fine wines and growing vineyards. He is patient, answers all questions, and we had an awesome time with Jaime.
Overall, we tasted four Wines that was over the top Delish!!! The tour of the cave was beautiful!!! The machinery on the grounds were massive!!! The large table tasting room can easily accommodate up to 10 people comfortably. Say Hello to WOODY, the wine dog, who loves to lay out where ever he likes!!!
We love this place!!!
Enjoy!!!
Cheers!!!

A lovely winery - feels very intimate - with fantastic wines. A legend of Napa, well worth it. We even got to meet the impressive Mrs Shari Staglin!

Rutherford at it's finest!
Apr 2017 • Couples
Staglin winery sit beautifully on the foothills of Rutherford, CA. The overall property is pristine and beautiful. We were greeted by Jaime Orozco with a beautiful 2014 Salus Estate Chardonnay as we toured their tasting room and cave.
As we retreated from the cave tour to the tasting room, It dawned on me that I would want to live in Napa.
As we all settled in the tasting room and marveled over the view of the vineyards, we had the pleasure of tasting Staglin 2013 Salus Cabernet Sauvignon, 2010 Estate Cabernet Sauvignon and 2013 Estate Cabernet Sauvignon. Very sexy!!!

Staglin Stands Out
Dec 2015 • Couples
This small and somewhat exclusive winery is not a frequent stop on a Napa tour, but worth the effort to arrange a visit.
With limited production, it is not a big player in the wine world, but it's Cabs are stellar, particularly it's "B" label Salus.
With a brief walk through a misty vineyard, we toured their sparkling cave and had an engaging discussion with one of the wine makers.
It made the visit special and memorable.

Hi, if we were to book just the tasting (still $75 pp in May 2019?) would we be able to have a wander in the grounds by ourselves?

We also offer a tasting without the tour which is about 60 minutes and is $75 per person. Both experiences are hosted privately and include a sampling of five wines. We are open by appointment only Monday through Friday. If you would like more information, please feel free to contact us directly via the visit us page on our website. We would welcome the opportunity to host you for a visit!
Cheers,

Is there a tour without the cost of wine tasting (for non-drinkers) who are simply fans of this property because of its presence in the Parent Trap movie? My husband and I loved that movie as kids and still watch it with the same excitement! Thank you in advance for any helpful response.

So sorry, Unfortunately they do not host only tours. They are limited to how many guests they see and it is a private estate. They can do just tasting without the tour. They do get plenty of requests where guests just want to come on the property because of the movie. Tastings are done by appointment only. It is a really exclusive winery, hope you understand. Cheers!!!
