There are toasts, and then there are moments people talk about for years. Our Sabering Experience turns opening a bottle of sparkling wine into a celebration that feels cinematic. You will learn the history of sabrage, watch a live demo from our team, and then take the saber in your own hands to open a bottle in one perfect strike, cork flying and bubbles spilling into the sunlight.

It is dramatic, loud, safe, and incredibly fun.

This is more than a pour. This is your main character moment.

What to expect

Your group will meet with a CAST host for a private sabering session. We walk you through how sabering works, give you pro tips, and make sure you're confident and comfortable before you make the cut. Then it's your turn.

You will saber a chilled bottle of CAST sparkling in front of your friends while we cheer you on. We pour, you toast, and yes, you absolutely can take photos and video. In fact, we encourage it.

After the saber, enjoy a celebratory tasting of the bottle you opened.

Make it part of the story

Sabering is a favorite for birthdays, engagements, anniversaries, reunion weekends, and wine country getaways that deserve a little extra theater. It is also an instant hit with corporate groups who want something memorable and sharable without feeling corporate.

If you're already planning a tasting or private experience at CAST, you can add sabering as the moment in the middle that nobody forgets.
