Highlights: 2006 Salvestrin Estate '3D' Cabernet Sauvignon
"94 Points. As ripely fruity and oaky as any cab out there, offering a flood of blackberries, currants, cherries, raspberries, mocha and sweet, smoky new oak. Yet lifted up by the tannin-inspired structure and a welcome, herbaceous note of olives. Marries the best of the old and new styles, a terrific Cabernet that will develop for 6-8 years."

Highlights: 2006 Salvestrin Retaggio
"This wine makes pairing very simple, because of the supple tannins it makes a fine food companion and will pair nicely with just about most menus. A well made wine, drink now and often."
October 20, 2009- PB Pulse "Tasting at Sabor Havana Connoisseur Club"
Highlights: 2005 Salvestrin Cabernet Sauvignon
"Ah, my favorite of the evening. Of course, it took me a good five minutes to get around to tasting it because I was so
enamored with the aroma. The smell was amazing! This is a great wine that will ask a lot of the drinker but will give a lot back. I suspect it will age very well – there’s a lot of potential in the wine and will probably be even better after being decanted. It retails for $60."
