Product description

This boxed set includes 3 bottles of Sine Qua Non Eleven Confessions Vineyard Syrah 2018 and 3 bottles of Sine Qua Non Eleven Confessions Vineyard Grenache 2018

Founded in 1994 by Manfred and Elaine Krankl in Ventura, on California's Central Coast, the winery is the epitome of an artisanal, cult winery. The husband-and-wife team makes mostly Rhone-style reds and whites in very limited quantities using such grapes as Syrah, Grenache, Pinot Noir, Roussanne, and Viognier.

Robert M. Parker Jr. has called Sine Qua Non "one of the world's most creative wineries" and one that "is turning out world-class wines of extraordinary complexity and individuality. 


Sine Qua Non Eleven Confessions Vineyard Syrah 2018

100 Points - Robert Parker's Wine Advocate

...layered aromas of cassis, coffee beans, garrigue and cracked pepper before segueing to soaring floral perfume...full-bodied, powerful and seamless, boasting powdery tannins and integrated acidity. It has a concentrated core of floral fruit and a tremendously long finish.

100 Points - Jeb Dunnock

Incredible notes of ripe cherries, currants, ground black and white pepper, cured meats, and saddle leather...full-bodied, deep, and concentrated on the palate...another utterly magical wine.

...dark, sensual and layered, with tremendous freshness and energy backing a core of dark red/black fruit, chocolate, mocha, licorice and spice.


Sine Qua Non Eleven Confessions Vineyard Grenache 2018

100 Points - Jeb Dunnock

...bouquet of black raspberries, herbes de Provence, violets, mulled cherries, sandalwood, and new leather. As complex and nuanced as they come, this full-bodied beauty has awesome purity of fruit, a layered, balanced mouthfeel, sweet, fine-grained tannins, and a great, great finish.

99 Points - Robert Parker's Wine Advocate

...scents of Morello cherries, coffee beans, licorice, thyme, tea leaves and forest floor...full-bodied palate is powerful yet energetic, offering bursts of juicy acidity and grainy tannins to counter its concentrated fruits...long finish blossoms to a kaleidoscope of spicy, floral accents...
