Continuum partnership is more than just the ongoing legacy of the Robert
Mondavi family. It is a renewed commitment to the innovation, excellence,
and artistic expression in grape growing and winemaking. The grapes for
both the 2005 and 2006 vintages come from vineyards in the Oakville
appellation, cultivated by the Mondavi family for decades. The wines are raised
with respectful and time honored techniques, acquired over four generations and
85 years of experience. The grapes are hand harvested into small lug-boxes,
hand-sorted and fed by gravity into small Oak Tanks for fermentation. The
wines are aged in 100% new French Oak barrels and bottled unfined and
unfiltered.A NEW
