The Winery
Sine Qua Non
We love rarity, and Sine Qua Non is rare by design. For every vintage winemaker Manfred Krankl not only makes new wine, but designs a new label and bottle style. Each bottle is a work of art with a name that seems to capture its essence. Benchmark is proud to have one of the largest collections of Sine Qua Non in the country, ready to deliver at your request.
Summary
The Sine Qua Non Grenache 'This Is Not An Exit' 2009 is a cult wine sourced from the Eleven Confessions Vineyard in Santa Barbara County. This Grenache, comprising 79% Grenache, 15% Syrah, and smaller portions of Viognier and Roussanne, showcases a rich and voluptuous character. Extended élevage in French oak has imparted layers of complexity, with prominent notes of raspberry, mocha, spice, and rich dark fruits. Its full-bodied nature is complemented by a silky texture and balanced acidity, making it approachable yet capable of aging. This wine presents an exceptional drinking experience with a long, satisfying finish.
