The pioneer in the introduction of grapeseed oil to the American market is indisputably Food & Vine, Inc. - makers of Salute Santé! Grapeseed Oil.  Embracing the toast of the two leading countries in grapeseed oil production, Salute Santé! says, “to your health” in both French and Italian.

Combining the very highest quality grapeseed oil with award-winning packaging, Salute Santé! has quickly established itself as the leader in the creation and distribution of this healthiest-of-oils. A healthy alternative to all other vegetable oils, Salute Sante! Grapeseed Oil proves that food prepared in this pure, delicate oil can both taste good and be good for you.

Valentin Humer, founder and company president, has devoted the past 15 years to the mission of creating the highest quality grapeseed oil.  An Austrian born, European-trained chef with extensive experience in the creation and preparation of healthy gourmet food, Valentin came to the United States after more than a decade of working with some of the finest restaurants throughout Europe.  While in Manhattan, Valentin was introduced to grapeseed oil.  He was amazed with the versatility, high smoke point and its health benefits and dedicated himself full-time to studying the attributes of grapeseed oil.

Valentin, now considered the foremost authority on grapeseed oil, and his wife, Nanette, have been building an industry, introducing grapeseed oil and its unique attributes and health benefits to people all over the world.  Nanette’s strong background in the retail industry as a visual merchandising director for some of the country’s top retailers has played a key role in achieving award winning packaging design.

Valentin's vision to create an industry for grapeseed oil that contributes to people’s health and well-being, and to make Salute Santé! Grapeseed Oil the healthy choice of every household, has come to fruition.  In addition to producing the highest quality natural grapeseed oil, Food & Vine, Inc. has created five award winning flavored oils, each of which is infused with all-natural, fresh herbs and spices: Basil, Lemon, Chili, Rosemary and Roasted Garlic.  Finally, Food & Vine, Inc. has also recently introduced two more exceptional, limited-production oils, Extra Virgin Cold Pressed Unfiltered and Chardonnay grapeseed oils.

Salute Santé! Grapeseed Oil is now highly visible in the better stores in the retail marketplace as well as in the food service industry.  The company also actively pursues commercial manufacturers encouraging them to convert to heart-healthy Salute Santé! Grapeseed Oil.  Food & Vine, Inc. encourages the development of other brand names in the market by supplying bulk product as well as extensive product knowledge education.  These brands are endowed with a neutral grapeseed oil “quality logo”, a symbol of the highest quality grapeseed oil available.

Salute Santé! Grapeseed Oil is the perfect oil for the health conscious gourmet!
