A story of generations has led the Mondavi family to this extraordinary site, chosen for its distinctive volcanic and well-drained soils- perfectly suited to growing characterful Cabernet family varietals. Experience for yourself the unique attributes of this site that have quickly established Continuum among the cult echelon of wine.

    Considered the top vineyard in the United States, To Kalon was originally planted in the 1860s by H W Crabb.  The wines were sold widely until prohibition brought an end to the winery. The vineyards were split up but still produce some of the finest grapes in the World.  While To Kalon wines, under several labels, can be purchased commercially, there has never been a dinner at the Crabb estate offered before. You and your guests will have the once in a lifetime chance to tour the beautiful property, learn from To Kalon historian Graeme MacDonald whose family has had their holdings since the 1950s owning his own label MacDonald, and sample different wines made from the renowned grapes. This experience benefits the St. Helena Hospital.
