Experience Exceptional Complexity
Crafted by Sine Qua Non in California’s Central Coast, this 2019 Grenache-led blend (33% Grenache, 23.5% Syrah) is a masterclass in balance. Hailed by Wine Advocate with 97-99 Points and Jeb Dunnuck’s 98 Points, this wine captivates with layered aromas of blueberry jam, thyme, and floral nuances, evolving into dark chocolate and spice with airtime.

Terroir & Technique
Grown on the cooler, sandy soils of The Third Twin estate vineyard (planted since 2000), this blend embraces 19% whole cluster fermentation for texture and depth. Matured in French oak for 33 months before transitioning to cement tanks, it achieves a seamless harmony of power and elegance—perfect for collectors seeking high-scoring red blends with longevity.

Flavors That Impress
Expect a full-bodied palate framed by velvety tannins and vibrant acidity, delivering notes of blackberry tart, tobacco leaf, and dried herbs. While stunning now, this wine rewards patience: cellar for 2-4 years to unlock its full potential over 15-20 years.

Pair & Enjoy
Decant for 60 minutes before serving with grilled meats or bold cheeses. Ideal for special occasions or adding to your fine red wine collection, this bottle redefines what California blends can achieve.
