Founded in 1994 by Manfred Krankl and his wife Elaine, Sine Qua Non has gained a cult following for its exceptional and limited-edition Rhône-style wines. The 2007 Pictures Grenache is primarily composed of Grenache (87%), with smaller amounts of Syrah (11.5%) and Viognier (1.5%) added to the blend. The grapes were sourced from several vineyards in California, including the Eleven Confessions Vineyard in the Santa Rita Hills appellation, the White Hawk Vineyard in Santa Barbara County, and the Alban Vineyard in Edna Valley. The wine boasts a rich, full-bodied palate, with flavours of ripe red and black fruits, such as raspberries, black cherries, and plums, along with notes of chocolate, liquorice and baking spices.

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.
