Continuum 2006 750mL

Continuum 2006 is a Napa Valley proprietary red wine from Continuum Estate, with the official vintage sheet listing a Cabernet-family blend of 59% Cabernet Sauvignon, 25% Cabernet Franc and 16% Petit Verdot. The 2006 vintage sits in the early years of Continuum's release history from the Sage Canyon Vineyard on the eastern Oakville hillsides.

From the Producer

Continuum is a Napa Valley estate founded by Tim and Marcia Mondavi, children of Robert Mondavi, on the Sage Canyon Vineyard on the eastern hillsides of the Oakville AVA. The estate began releasing wine with the 2005 vintage and produces a single proprietary red wine each year, blended from Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc and Petit Verdot grown on the property. The Mondavi family also founded the nearby RAEN and Charles Banks-distributed labels, but Continuum remains the principal estate wine from the site.
