Staglin Family Vineyards traces its history back to the 1860's.  Through layers of inheritance, litigation and bankruptcy, In 1963 the parcel sold to the Sullivan family with marriage ties to the de Latour family who owned Beaulieu Vineyards (BV). Already having a home, the Sullivans parceled off the home and sold it as a separate home site. Under the watchful eye of Andre Tchelistcheff (considered the father of modern Calif. winemaking) the prune orchard was removed and new vines were planted for BV’s exclusive Georges de Latour Private Reserve label. 

In 1985, the Staglin family purchased this historic estate on the Rutherford Bench. With a strong respect for the former proprietors they worked closely with Andre Tchelistcheff to bridge his knowledge of this unique land. In 2007 they purchased the original Steckter home, reuniting it with the surrounding acreage of which it had been a part for 140 years.

Winemaker's tasting notes - “An energetic cascade of red and black fruit deepened by dollops of earth, resinous woods and pinched herbs.” While the 2010 drinks beautifully now, it should continue to age well for the next 5-10 years.
