To commemorate the 20th anniversary of surpassing Lou Gehrig's consecutive game streak, Ripken has teamed up with Napa Valley's AXIOS winery to make a luxury Cabernet Sauvignon. The wine is named "2131" after Ripken's record-breaking number of consecutive games. One-third of the profits from the wine will be donated to the Cal Ripken Sr. Foundation, which supports at-risk youth through baseball-related programs. This collectable wine is a limited run of 2,131 bottles and sold individually in wood-and-glass boxes.

Made to honor baseball player Cal Ripken Jr.'s 2131st consecutive game played, this 100% varietal red is grippy in flavors of coconut and black cherry, with a structured, complex and robust palate. It has richness within balanced tannin and oak, finishing with a wealth of black licorice and earth.
