Continuum Estate is a renowned family-run winery in Napa Valley, founded by the Mondavi family. With a commitment to sustainability and excellence, the estate produces wines that reflect the unique terroir of the Pritchard Hill region, known for its exceptional growing conditions. The 'Continuum' label is the culmination of decades of winemaking experience, offering wines that balance power, elegance, and complexity.
From the winemaker: "Aromatically effusive, 2022 Continuum is a seductive wine with an upright and regal core. Elegantly interwoven notes of black plum, black cherry, cacao, forest floor and tobacco leaf mingle with our sage mountain garrigue and volcanic minerality. Energetic and expressive 2022 Continuum is a harmoniously integrated wine with structural complexity wrapped in a velvet robe."
- WINEMAKERS: Tim and Marcia Mondavi
- FARMING: Certified Organic, Sustainable Practices, Dry-Farmed
- VARIETY: 45% Cabernet Sauvignon, 43% Cabernet Franc, 8% Petit Verdot, and 4% Merlot
- TERROIR: Located in the Pritchard Hill sub-appellation of Napa Valley, the vineyard sits at an elevation of 1,400 feet, with volcanic soils and a climate that benefits from daytime warmth and cool evening temperatures. This unique terroir results in wines of great depth and structure.
- VINIFICATION: Grapes are hand-harvested and carefully sorted. Fermented in small open-top tanks with indigenous yeasts to highlight the purity of the fruit. Minimal intervention during fermentation to allow the natural expression of the vineyard.
- AGING: Aged for 22 months in French oak barrels, 75% new.
- TASTING NOTES: The wine showcases a deep, dark color with aromas of ripe blackberry, cassis, and plum, complemented by hints of tobacco, leather, and cocoa. On the palate, it’s rich and full-bodied with velvety tannins and a long, lingering finish. Layers of complexity unfold with time in the glass, offering notes of spice, licorice, and a touch of minerality.
- FOOD PAIRINGS: Pairs wonderfully with roasted lamb, ribeye steak, grilled vegetables, or a rich mushroom risotto.
- SCORES: 95 points, Wine Spectator; 94 points, Robert Parker's Wine Advocate
