Producer Information

Continuum was founded in 2005 by renowned Californian winemaking pioneer Robert Mondavi and two of his children, Tim and Marcia. The winery concentrates on Bordeaux-style red wine blends from grapes grown on the Napa Valley estate. The Continuum vineyard was bought in 2008 and is located on Pritchard Hill, above the famous valley. However, it wasn’t until the 2012 vineyard that the wines were entirely produced from estate fruit. Previous vintages were sourced from Marjorie’s Vineyard within Mondavi’s To Kalon vineyard in Oakville, as well as from parcels in Stags Leap District. The winery, designed by the famous winery architect Howard Backen, was completed in 2013, just in time for Tim Mondavi’s 40th year as a winemaker. Pritchard Hill is located in the Vaca Mountain range on the eastern side of Napa Valley, and its hilly terrain is home to many of Napa’s so-called “cult wineries”, including Chappellet, Ovid and David Arthur. Continuum is predominately made from Cabernet Sauvignon, with some Merlot, Cabernet Franc, and Petit Verdot blended in. Continuum Cabernet sells out quickly in the market, mainly through the winery’s mailing list. The winery also has a second label Novicium a Merlot-dominant wine made from newer vines on the Pritchard Hill property.
