The 2013 Sine Qua Non Female Grenache Magnum, crafted by winemaker Manfred Krankl, embodies a blend of 78% Grenache, 19% Syrah, and 3% Mourvèdre, with an alcohol content of 15.5%. Sourced primarily from the Eleven Confessions, Cumulus, and Third Twin estate vineyards in California, this vintage reflects a warm growing season that supported fruit concentration. The wine underwent 25 months of ageing in French oak, with only 22% new barrels used. The aroma profile includes black raspberries, white pepper, and lavender, showcased in the magnum format which aids in preserving its structure alongside a velvety mouthfeel. This release signifies a marked focus on estate fruit, enhancing both aromatic complexity and balance.
