Description

Sine Qua Non Grenache 2004
Ode to E
Bottle (2)

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

"Leading off with the Grenache-driven efforts, and easily the greatest expression of the variety I’ve ever tasted from California, the 2004 Ode to E (Grenache) is mind-blowing stuff that will stand toe-to-toe with the greatest Grenache-based wines ever made. Coming from Manfred’s Eleven Confessions Vineyard and comprised of 88% Grenache, 10% Syrah and 2% Viognier, it sports a still vibrant purple color to go with off-the-hook aromas and flavors of creme de cassis, melted licorice, graphite, smoked herbs and assorted meaty nuances. Full-bodied, seamless and elegant, with incredible purity and a perfect texture, it can be consumed anytime over the coming decade." (100 pts. Jeb Dunnuck, Wine Advocate #213, July 2014)


Estimate: $850 - $1,200.

Shipping Restriction: Please note that we cannot ship to addresses in Mississippi, so please bid accordingly.
