Sine Qua Non Patine Grenache Magnum 2011 is a complex red wine crafted by renowned winemaker Manfred Krankl. The blend comprises 77% Grenache, 19% Syrah, and 4% Mourvèdre, achieving an alcohol level of 15.5%. Sourced from the Eleven Confessions estate vineyard, this wine underwent 33 months of ageing in a combination of new and neutral French oak. The cooler profile of the 2011 vintage is evident, contributing to an aromatic lift and structural acidity that distinguishes it from warmer years. This magnum format enhances the wine`s evolution, showcasing notes of black raspberries, white pepper, and dark chocolate.

The 2011 Grenache Patine has turned out beautifully. Dark red cherry, plum, mocha, spice and leather meld together in the glass as this savory, beautifully layered wine opens up. Herb, graphite, smoke, sage and tobacco add shades of nuance in a delineated Grenache that captures the best of this cool, late-ripening year. Patine is 77% Grenache, 22% Syra and 1% Viognier, all from Eleven Confessions, done with 25% whole clusters and aged for 33 months in French oak barrels, 11% new. Antonio Galloni1st August 2015

Art and Fine Wine Collide

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.
