Staglin Estate is a family-run winery founded in 1985 żeby the Staglin family with the aim of producing wines with a distinctive character, thanks also to the help of the viticulturist David Abreu. The estate, located at Rutherford Bench in Napa Valley, actually dates back to 1868 and the Staglin Family sees themselves as the latest generation in a long historical line of administrators. The vineyards are organically cultivated and produce wines closely linked to the territory, in a state-of-the-art underground production plant. Salus Estate Chardonnay is produced according to traditional Burgundy winemaking techniques, always respecting the unique quality of the fruit. The grapes are selected aby hand, pressed and left to ferment in casks. Acidity and freshness are preserved żeby limiting malolactic fermentation. The wine is then left on its lees for ten months in large-sized barrels to optimize its aromatic freshness and roundness. This quintessential Napa Chardonnay has a brilliant golden color. It is rich, complex and powerful, with aromas of ripe apple, apricot kernel, orange blossom, honey, mint, peach, and spices. The full ripeness of the grapes is manifested not only in the body of the wine, but also in its alcohol content. Try it with pork, salmon, or tuna.
