Review 2021 Continuum Estate Proprietary Red 750ml
About the Wine
Great wine is the work of generations. Continuum Estate is the realization of the Mondavi family’s over 100-year journey in wine. Tim & Marcia Mondavi’s families, along with their team, continue their refinement of this First Growth of Napa Valley.
Continuum is built upon a dynamic and pioneering family history. Over more than a century, four generations of Mondavis have produced wines that continually raised the bar for quality and prestige, propelling the family name to become synonymous with the shimmering promise of California wine.
"The winegrower’s art begins by finding a great site, then balancing the vine to the site, the fruit to the vine, the winemaking to the fruit and ultimately the wine to the table."
TASTING NOTES:
A vintage set apart for its perseverance and resilience. 2021 was marked by the second year of an extreme drought and the moderate growing season that carried it through. 2021 Continuum is one of refined concentration -a resounding expression of both measured intensity and enduring vibrancy. This is a multi-layered magnificent vintage that reveals floral notes, with black cherry and wild foraged mixed berries. One can perceive the chemise, sage, and bay giving a gorgeous savory expression, reflective of the natural environment that surrounds our Sage Mountain Vineyard. 2021 is a wine of incredible complexity and nuance- a wine for the ages.
