Sine Qua Non

Entre Chien et Loup White Blend

heady aromas of mango, peach, apricot, orange blossom, honey, chamomile & marzipan translate into rich & viscous flavors up front that evolve into a more satiny textured finish w grapefruit, acidity & salinity...THA JUICE IS TITS!

Dangerous Birds Grenache 2007

1st off, Tarantella is just mind boggling! 1999 and still going strong. One of my all time favorite SQN whites. Honeyed perfume of mangos and tangerines. Still vibrant. Still fresh! Manfred's whites are beyond comparison. A league of his own. DB's aromatics are off the charts. Blackberry fruits, camphor and lavender (OK @Bill Bender get ready for @Dag Zapatero flower hatred). 10's across the board in both mouthfeel and texture. Massive yet elegant and light on it's feet. A Krankl hallmark. Lingering finish. 3 For 3 on Roman's Big 3 scale: Nose, Texture and Finish. Finally, Saxum. I didn't give this much of a decant as this was a late request from a friend. I'll not rate it now. Check in later in the evening. — 8 years ago

And An Eight Track California Rosé 2013

2013 SQN "...And An Eight Track" Rose'. I look at these as Manfred's in your face, over the top, hedonistic homage to life wines. Throw all of your preconceived notions of what a Rose' should be right out the window. These wines celebrate life. No review today. Happy Memorial Day. Don't think. Enjoy. Recently, I've had a little back and forth with a non-SQN believer who shall remain nameless. You know the type. "I just don't get SQN" (And man, do I ever hate that phrase. Surprisingly, don't think I've ever heard "I just don't get DRC"). Anyway, I let it upset me more than it should have. To each his own. Drink what you love, but for my money, give me Mr Krankl anytime! — 7 years ago

And just be be clear, I'm not trying to convert non-believers. It's simply that "I just don't get it" from a wine professional appears to me to be a slam at anyone who does enjoy the wine. A simple "just not my style" or "not for me" would be more apropos to my way of thinking.

Rare event. Love the mouth feel of these wines. Lucious although I agree these lacked a little acid but what a freaking treat. Great summer time wines. #sqn — 8 years ago

I am blessed for these opportunities, and after the death of a friend at age 39, I have a new outlook on life. I still plan for tomorrow but appreciate the gift of the present. #ThePreciousPresent 😇
