Community Tasting Note

Tuesday, May 12, 2015 - I haven't tasted yet...letting rest after shipment. I didn't find much info on these wines as this is their first release, so adding some background from the web:

Fourth generation winegrowers, Dante and Carlo Mondavi were born and raised in the Napa Valley and cut their teeth in the family business. As winemakers and farmers they attribute a great deal of what they have learned to their grandfather Robert and father Tim, both who influenced them from a young age. But the enological influence didn't end there; when Robert Mondavi Winery was sold in 2004, the brothers joined their father Tim, Aunt-Marcia and Grandfather Robert, investing sweat equity to help found Continuum in 2005. Then, in 2013 Carlo and Dante founded RAEN (Research in Agriculture and Enology Naturally) winery with the goal to produce world class Pinots from unique coastal vineyards in Sonoma. Backed with a lot of history, a healthy dose of experience and a keen eye for great vineyards and winemaking we'd bet that this project won't stay under wraps for long…
