🍷 Sine Qua Non. Ratsel 2016 Syrah Have you ever heard about it???? • • 🔎 Come si fa a diventare un vino Mito? Bisognerebbe chiedere all’enologo Manfred Krankl e a sua moglie Elaine, i proprietari di questa cantina Californiana, che in poco tempo hanno creato un vino divento oggetto di desiderio dei più esigenti palati e collezionisti. • • 🕰 La prima vendemmia esce nel 1994, con un chiaro obbiettivo da loro dichiarato: “Our wines were born of pure passion and a wishful dream – to make something that is so distinctive and so delicious as to make it indispensable to wine lovers the world over.” Prende da subito 95 punti di Robert Parker, il punteggio più alto mai dato ad un Syrah americano…. E da lì il dado è tratto. • • 📍Si trovano in California, al Nord di Los Angeles, ma hanno praticamente ricreato una piccola Valle del Rodano, dalla quale hanno ripreso sia i vitigni più caratteristici, sia lo stile produttivo. • • 🍇 Sono partiti con 4 botti e mezzo, di solo Syrah… e da allora concentrando la loro passione e i loro investimenti in questo vitigno, hanno creato alcuni dei prodotti più cari del mercato vinicolo statunitense, venduti praticamente tutti tramite una lunga lista d’attesa. Ogni prodotto è a sé stante e ha una tiratura super limitata, e una forte identità, rafforzata dalle particolari etichette ideate dal proprietario stesso. • • ———————————————— #followmywinepassion #vinotv (presso Piazza Venezia) https://www.instagram.com/p/CBp2NE2ieoB/?igshid=1hsupjy5aiqb3

Scrumptdillyicious dill and cedar swooning out of the dull prune color. Wide orange edge fading to clear. Brownies fraught with moldy fur made by nuns trussed up with soaked rattan, a Welch’s spot of perfect grape evades capture in the background, despite the Naugahyde floggings and gear-lube shine. Nuttier than Randall Grahm and danker than Manfred Krankl, it sends a green vegetal shot across…

Mega Offer 94 Points rated wine only $15.99. Domaine Lafage Bastide Miraflors Vieilles Vignes 2015 ( Rhone Red Blends from Languedoc-Roussillon, France ) Only at Yorkshire Wines & Spirits 94 Robert Parker Wine Advocate: This wine is almost too good to be true. A blend of 70% Syrah and 30% Grenache that was brought up in concrete tanks (Grenache) and demi-muids (Syrah), the 2015 Bastide Miraflors Vieilles Vignes reminded me of a mini Syrah from California's Manfred Krankl (yes I just compared a $14 Syrah to Sine Qua Non). It's a ripe, sexy, heady beauty that exhibits a deep, purple color as well as killer notes of smoked meats, chocolate, blackberry and black raspberries. Deep, unctuous, open knit and layered, it continues to change in the glass, has a seamless and silky profile, and not a hard edge to be found. It's a sensational value that needs to be tasted to be believed. Drink it anytime over the coming 2-4 years.

Scrumptdillyiscious dill and cedar swooning out of the dull prune color. Wide orange edge fading to clear. Brownies fraught with moldy fur made by nuns trussed up with soaked rattan, a Welch's spot of perfect grape evades capture in the background, despite the Naugahyde floggings and gear-lube shine. Nuttier than Randall Grahm and danker than Manfred Krankl, it sends a green vegetal shot across the bow of the good ship California, with not just ripeness, but texture you can SMELL. I discovered this label a few years back and then have been blessed with their attendance of WORLD OF PINOT the past couple years. SOOOO much great Oregon comes down for that event. Far more than we could ever dream of seeing on a shelf here in Socal. In the mouth, fresh-picked flowers at the height of young springtime fragrance. Daffodils and crocus, lily and jasmine. Oil-rubbed and shiny-smooth where it has been touched, green sapling in a pouty argument with tertiary wood. Sweet cherry cola takes an extra helping of dirt with it to the bedroom, where savory mixes with succulent and finishes hot. A beautiful--if piquant--aged Pinot. 2007 @monksgate_vineyard #PinotNoir #WillametteValley #oregonwinecountry 13.5 #zieherglass (at MonksGate Vineyard and Wines) https://www.instagram.com/p/B8-WI9GHvX4/?igshid=7zde03zgdezb
