Sine Qua Non 2012 “In the Abstract” White Blend.
In honor of the Austrian Grand Prix this weekend at the Red Bull Ring, and a 98 degree day in Chicago, I thought I’d open a little something from my favorite Austrian winemaker. 35%Chardonnay 32%Roussanne 17%Viognier 16%Petite Manseng. Hailing from Bien Nacido, Cumulus and Eleven Confessions vineyard, it spent just under 19 months in 48% used barrels (1-4 years old), 27% new French oak and the balance in concrete eggs. Beautiful deep, translucent gold in the stem. On the nose, fresh-cut white flowers, apricots and peaches with carmel corn and a killer buttery brioche note that just makes me smile. HUGE, full-throttled palate of those aforementioned honeyed apricots and peaches with some mint and spice notes. Finishes with a lingering touch of toasty oak. Viscous, unctuous and oily texture from the Roussanne component. Big, bold, and decadent., yet elegant and classy. For me, this wine is all about the nose and mouth feel. Good Lord, I do love and treasure these SQN whites. To my palate, they evolve and improve every bit as much as Manfred’s reds. They’re in a class by themselves. — 6 years ago

Baby, it’s cold outside. Falling near 70! The stouts are out! This sleek black beauty has it all! Thick, even lacing in two tone cafe shades, a cumulus attitude. Clean almond and cacao pod with a lemon pith aura. Bee pollen, waterfall rocks and northern oyster shell, including a light brine. Medium mouthfeel and soft minerality prevailas sips reduce the lace to alphabet soup fonts and ultimately horror forests. Unexpectedly clean, with coffee-cola notes and caramelized onion minus the burn. Crispy vanilla that turns creamy with agitation. Steely, smoky, pepper crackers, and bitter violets. #boulevardbrewing #darktruth #kcbeer #stout #dankdark — 6 years ago

Dark, deep concentration, impactful without losing aromatics. The complexity is there but there still seems to be some monolithic elements that dominate the wine. Despite this the wine is incredibly perfumed, very inviting. Really delicious though in a hedonistic way. — 5 years ago
