A RARE OFFERING OF SINE QUA NON
Numbered 25 of 40, bought on release and stored in temperature controlled storage by a noted Californian winemaker.
This collection of wines is number 25 of 40 made in the spring of 1995 as a sort of closure to Manfred Krankl's Project Wine period (wines made with other winemakers) and to signify the start of his own label, Sine Qua Non. The boxes were sold via word of mouth, and have been disseminated throughout the country. Krankl himself kept one. The box contains five wines. To whit:
1990 Thief is a Chardonnay made with Bryan Babcock. 225 cases of this wine were made.
1990 Terzetto (the trio) is a blend of 40 Cabernet Sauvignon, 40 Barbera and 20 Freisa, made with the Coppo Brothers in Canelli, Italy. 50 cases of this wine were made.
1992 Black & Blue was made with Michael Havens of Havens Wine Cellars. It is a 55 Syrah and 45 Cabernet Sauvignon blend. 275 cases of this wine were made.
1993 Roussanne is Coming...with Legs. This wine was made with John Alban. It is 100 Roussanne and there are two bottles with two different labels. All together 335 cases of this wine was produced. Some 295 cases carry the "Roussanne is Coming" label and the other 40 cases the "Legs" label. There are two labels because Krankl was nerovous (unnecessarily so, it turned out) that the Legs label would be rejected by the BATF.
The lot below presents a rare opportunity to acquire some of the most desirable, older vintage SQN around. Combined with the handsome metal welded art box with padlock and key as illustrated, and with a signed description of all the wines on a parchment scroll, this is a rare item indeed.
