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.
The Mondavi family looked to Mendocino County’s diverse soils and ideal climate which align with their vision for a vibrant, mineral-driven white wine, inspired by their history and great wines of the Loire. They sought out small, family-owned and farmed, old vine vineyards who share the Mondavi's 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.
JEB DUNNUCK 94 POINTS - "I loved the 2023 Sauvignon Blanc, a vibrant white offering ample Meyer lemon, honeyed flowers, and crushed stone-driven aromatics, as well as a crisp, clean sense of reduction. Medium-bodied, nicely concentrated, and elegant, it might be my favorite of the lineup. I love it today, yet it should have at least a decade of longevity, if not more."
