Sine Qua Non Eleven Confessions Vineyard Syrah 2018

HED92583 75cl 15.9%
The 2018 Eleven Confessions Vineyard Syrah is a blend of 82% Syrah, 10.6% Grenache, 5.3% Petite Syrah and 2.1% Viognier, made entirely of estate fruit. The grapes come from Sine Qua Non`s estate vineyard, Eleven Confessions, located in the Santa Rita Hills appellation of Santa Barbara County. The cool, maritime-influenced climate of this region contributes to the elegance and balance of the wines produced here. The vineyard`s sandy loam soils add complexity to the wine. It is a rich, full-bodied expression, boasting notes of blackberries, blueberries, and black cherries, along with hints of black pepper, smoked meat, leather, and liquorice.

Sine Qua Non

Sine Qua Non

The wines of Sine Qua Non need little introduction. Mould breaking, iconoclastic, visionary are just some of the descriptors invoked when critics and wine lovers discuss this unique winery. Based in Ventura, north of LA, the wines of Sine Qua Non regularly notch up perfect scores from critics while the waiting list for a direct allocation is well over ten years.

Founded by Manfred and Elaine Krankl in the early 1990s, the duo swiftly gained attention from wine lovers and critics for their superb Rhône blend wines, quirky labels and uncompromising approach in the vineyard and cellar. The winery has experimented with producing Oregon Pinot Noir, dessert wines and an array of quirky single varietal reds and whites, but generally revert to producing the wines for which they are most famous - Grenache and Syrah. The wines are generally big and bold, but those who like things cranked up to eleven should look no further than Manfred's "extended barrel ageing" program.
