Sine Qua Non Distenta IV Syrah 2022, CA

82.7% Syrah, 6.0% Grenache, 5.0% Petite Sirah 3.3% Mourvedre 3.0% WhitesDownright unbelievably great. Super dark. Super broad. Super lush. Super complex and thought provoking. Full of creamy, lush, enveloping tannins. Superb length. If you don't like - I mean LOVE - this wine, then you just don't like wine. I couldn't be more pleased. | Manfred Krankl for Sine Qua Non...another ripe, layered, full-bodied 2022 that's going to deliver the goods. Ample blue fruits, kirsch liqueur, pepper, and tons of spicy notes all shine here, and this puppy has a layered, velvety mouthfeel, beautiful tannins, no hard edges, and awesome length. It's going to shine right out of the gate and it’s a good counterpoint to the more focused, cooler styled 2021s. | 96-98 points, Jeb Dunnuck for jebdunnuck.com
