Wine Review: This dark garnet colored red blend from Continuum is fantastic! It opens with a leather and black currant bouquet. On the palate, this wine is full bodied with integrated medium plus acidity. The mouthfeel is nicely balanced, very smooth, and polished. The flavor profile is a delicious black currant and black cherry blend with notes of tobacco and blueberry. We also detected some hints of cocoa, black tea, and oak. The finish is dry and its well-managed refined tannins build-up and last for quite a while. The Tasting Panel would pair this gem with Roy's prime rib roast. Enjoy – Ken

Winemaker Notes: 2019 Continuum showcases the highest percentage of Cabernet Franc to date- revealing the volcanic site and native attributes of Sage Mountain Vineyard. A lively and expressive nose with lifted red fruit, hibiscus, and delicate floral notes. The plush entry on the palate reveals concentrated dark fruit, and youthful black mulberry interweaving with layers of savory wild herb, exotic spice, and graphite. The 2019 Continuum's Mountain fruit expression is enveloped by a supple and silky texture with velvety fine tannins and ferrous minerality. Pleasing all the way though. The 2019 Continuum is an elevated and lush dance of power and grace on the palate.
