Best palate of all night at SNQ tasting @Bottles. Nose not that superlative. — 8 years ago
Very full bodied/deep in color/richer than expected. Easy to drink but has more depth than a typical Pinot Noir. — 8 years ago

As if Part 1 of Saturday night wasn’t incredible enough, Part 2 of the final and main event for the Fall WNH was all Sine Qua Non wines. The most spectacular lineup of wines I’ve ever seen, and an overall wonderful ending to an amazing trip with fantastic people.
The second SQN White we enjoyed (after having the ‘15 “ Entre chien et Loup” the night prior) was this beautiful wine. This is more Roussanne dominant than the prior bottle, which explains the more waxy, cool mint, nutty aromas and notes on the palate. Honeyed fruit with a toffee like finish. What a white wine!

Best rosé I’ve tasted. Close your eyes and you could be drinking a full-on red - love it.
Thank you @Eric LaMasters for this gift. — 7 years ago

Elegance and punch both mixed well in this bottle. First Sine Qua Non! — 11 years ago
Very concentrated and oaky. Typical Parker style. There are some port characteristics for sure. — 7 years ago
Young, but drinking well. Typical SQN nose and flavor profile. I enjoy Manfred’s Grenache wines even more than his Syrah-based wines. Will be hard to lay off my remaining bottles. — 8 years ago
Honeysuckle and lemon on nose. Velvety mouthfeel with hints of peach, lemon curd, cream, bacon fat, ash and a touch of clove. Could use a little more acidity for my liking but fantastic — 10 years ago
