Drunk too young. Dark cherries, blackberries and raspberries wrapped in fine oak. Full bodied, tannins getting there, fine acidity and length — 4 years ago

Elegant. Not too much alcohol, so great for pairing. Raised at high altitude, so ripening takes longer. — 7 years ago

Great bottle (magnum). Probably could have shown even higher if it had been at cellar temp but was delicious. It’s smooth as silk and had no sediment which surprised me but worked out well given the small restaurant wasn’t the decanting type. Great food and worked perfectly. Mom had no issues taking the last pour… — 5 months ago

2008 Sine Qua Non "The Duel" Grenache. "Two Losers, Two Winners." 15.8% alcohol. Yet another less than perfect Wine Advocate scorer, but if that's not perfection screaming from my glass right now, it's mighty close. Expressive nose of lilacs, dark fruits, anise and fresh baked blueberry pie. On the palate, a potpourri of liquefied purple flowers and sweet kirsch. Typical SQN satisfying and lengthy finish. I think I would have to be tasting all these barrel aged wines side by side by side before I might be able to rank them, and even then, I expect it would be difficult to distinguish a 10 from a 9.8. I've not found much that can approach Manfred's barrel aged wines for shear opulence. Maybe @justinsmith and @saxumvineyards Bone Rock in a great year, or perhaps @philippecambie with his Clos Saint Jean Sanctus Sanctorum. Let's face it, my followers know I'm perhaps Manfred's biggest fan. Would I let ya'll know if I tasted an SQN that was anything less than great? So far, we haven't had to worry as we've not even been close. — 7 years ago
