Sentium [by Chiara Mondavi]
A dream realized by the fourth generation of the Mondavi winegrowing family, banding together to create a wine uniquely expressive of their shared passion. Sentium is born of the efforts and experience, with Fume Blanc, of three generations before, in crafting a white wine from California that can stand in the company of the great wines of the world.
Chiara Mondavi looked to Mendocino County’s diverse soils and ideal climate which align with her vision for a vibrant, mineral-driven white wine, inspired by her family’s history and great wines of the Loire. She sought out small, family-owned and farmed, old vine vineyards who share her affinity for nature and organic winegrowing. The love and wisdom of these family growers is an essential element of terroir. This shows in the depth of character, complexity and sense of place expressed in Sentium.
