Sine Qua Non Atlantis Syrah Magnum 2005

Established in 1994, Sine Qua Non is possibly one of the most famous Californian cult wineries. The creation of maverick winemaker, Manfred Krankl, this winery is world-famous for producing miniscule quantities of unique Rhône Valley-inspired blends using estate-grown and purchased fruit from some of the greatest vineyards across the Central Coast. The 2005 release called Atlantis Fe203-2a is a blend of 93% Syrah, 5% Grenache and 2% Viognier sourced from the 11 Confessions, White Hawk, Alban and Bien Nacido Vineyards. Deeply dark-fruited, this exceptionally intense release also has wonderful floral perfume, savoury depth and mineral complexity. A stunning wine that scored 100-points in The Wine Advocate.
