Description

Sine Qua Non Pinot Noir 1998
Veiled
Bottle (1)

Property from the cellar of a Massachusetts-based professor. Most wines purchased on release and all stored under strict temperature and humidity control.

"Oregon's Shea Vineyard has been the source for many delicious Pinot Noirs from the likes of Ken Wright and others who live and work near the vineyard. One's sense of rational thought might be questioned to think that a winery two hours north of Los Angeles should be leasing a vineyard in Oregon, and shipping the fruit to California in refrigerated reefer trucks, but that is just what Elaine and Manfred Krankl are doing in order to satisfy their masochistic need to produce world-class Pinot Noir from a cool climate region. The 1998 Veiled Pinot Noir Shea Vineyard is outstanding. It reveals the vintage's strengths in its medium ruby color, attractive, sweet, plum, rose petal, black cherry fruit, and smoky-scented nose." (90-92 pts. Robert Parker, Wine Advocate #127, Feb. 2000)
