The Next Generation of Mondavi Wine! | Sentium Sauvignon Blanc Review22 Sept53 min

<p>What makes a Sauvignon Blanc worth $75?</p><p><br></p><p>Brian Mondavi Borger returns to Stop Wasting Your Wine with the 2024 Sentium, a Sauvignon Blanc led blend from the fourth generation of the Mondavi family. We taste it together and explore why winemaker Chiara Mondavi looked beyond Napa to old vineyards in Mendocino.</p><p><br></p><p>From Robert Mondavi’s Fumé Blanc legacy to Chiara’s approach in the cellar, Brian shares how the family’s history informs something new. We dig into the wine’s bright acidity, creamy texture, and the decisions behind what ends up in our glasses. Then comes our verdict: does Sentium deserve a spot in our wine fridges?</p><p><br></p><p>Plus, Brian takes on Grape Guesses. Does a lifetime around wine give him the edge, or can Colin and Aaron pull off an upset?</p><p><br></p><p>Pour a glass and find out whether Sentium belongs on your splurge list.</p><p><strong>Learn More About Sentium Wine</strong></p><p>Website: <a href="https://www.sentiumwine.com/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferer">https://www.sentiumwine.com/</a></p><p><br></p><p><strong>Also be sure to check out Continuum Estate</strong></p><p>Website: <a href="https://www.continuumestate.com/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferer">https://www.continuumestate.com/</a></p><p>Instagram: <a href="https://www.instagram.com/continuumestate/?hl=en" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferer">https://www.instagram.com/continuumestate/</a></p><p><br></p><p>Support the show!</p><p><strong>Buy us a glass!</strong></p><p><strong></strong><a href="https://buymeacoffee.com/cheers3">⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://buymeacoffee.com/cheers3⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠</a></p><p>Connect with the show.
