It’s sourced from three estate vineyards: The Third Twin (51%), Cumulus (26%), and 23% Eleven Confessions (23%). The Syrah is blended with 11.3% Grenache, 3.3% Mourvèdre, 2.1% Petite Sirah, 0.9% Petit Manseng, and 0.7% Muscat, and was vinified from 21% whole clusters. It aged for about 23 months in 53% new French oak, 43% one- to three-year-old barrels, and 4% concrete. Opaque ruby ​​purple in the glass, the Distenta III’s aromatic complexity demands a great deal of patience, as a singular truffle, earth and coffee bean character gives way to electric streaks of crème de violette, blueberry liqueur and peppermint patty. The palate is medium to full-bodied and exceptionally light on its feet. It slides silkily across the palate with a firework of freshness, its floral fruit tempered by graphite tones. Approximately 1,880 cases and 600 magnums are expected to be released in January 2024.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Valade \u0026 Transandine","offers":[{"title":"750ml","offer_id":49519101575516,"sku":null,"price":380.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false},{"title":"1500ml","offer_id":59522448752988,"sku":null,"price":1027.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0284\/0032\/0643\/files\/SineQuaNon-DistentaIIISyrah-Etats-Unis.png?v=1728582083"},{"product_id":"sine-qua-non-distenta-iii-grenache-etats-unis","title":"Sine Qua Non -

It comes primarily from Eleven Confessions (71%) and The Third Twin (23%) vineyards, with the remainder from Cumulus Vineyard. The blend is 79% Grenache, 8.4% Syrah, 7.4% Mourvèdre, 3.2% Petite Sirah, 1.6% Petit Manseng, and 0.4% Muscat. The Distenta III was vinified using approximately 35% whole cluster Grenache and aged in 42% new French oak barrels of varying sizes for about 23 months. It has a medium to deep ruby ​​color and is incredibly aromatic at this stage. Aromas of wild berry jam are accentuated by hints of wildflowers, tar, mandarin, and coffee beans. The full-bodied palate is concentrated yet vibrant, bursting with crisp, floral fruit and surprisingly energetic acidity. It displays detailed, grainy tannins and a long, lively finish that carries its alcohol well. 1,459 cases and 600 magnums are planned, with a release in spring 2024.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n \u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eJeb Dunnuck – Rated 97-99:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e \u003cem\u003eIntended for relatively early bottling, the 2021 Grenache Distenta III (79% Grenache, 8% Syrah, 7% Mourvèdre, and the remainder Petite Sirah with a touch of white grape varieties) offers a full-bodied, concentrated, yet pure and elegant profile, along with magnificent aromas of ripe black cherries, blackberries, peppery herbs, violets, and assorted floral nuances.

Far from being a light and easy-drinking wine, it displays a full-bodied richness and depth while maintaining perfect balance, great finesse, purity, and remarkable precision. This divine white will benefit from a year of bottle aging and, in my opinion, possesses exceptional aging potential of over a decade, although there is no need to age it prematurely.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e \u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan\u003eWine Advocate (Robert Parker)\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003cspan\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e– Rated 93:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n \u003cp\u003eThe 2021 Distenta III is a blend of 33% Chardonnay, 27% Viognier, 24% Gelber Muskateller, 12% Roussanne, and 4% Petit Manseng, the latter two varieties having been co-fermented. Primarily sourced from the Eleven Confessions vineyard, it also includes grapes from The Third Twin and Cumulus parcels. Aged for 23 months, 52% in new French oak barrels and demi-muids, the wine is intensely floral and exuberant, with honeyed and exotic aromas of stone fruit, citrus oil, pine needles, mint, and a noticeable alcoholic presence after aeration. The palate is full and smooth, dominated by a generous array of stone fruit flavors, supported by vibrant acidity. The finale, initially clean and precise, gradually evolves into an intoxicating and persistent sensation.\u003cstrong\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eVinous (Antonio Galloni) – Rated 94:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n \u003cp\u003eThe 2021 Distenta III is a wild and exotic white wine.

The blend is composed of 33% Chardonnay, 27% Viognier, 24% Gelber Muskateller, 12% Roussanne, and 4% Petit Manseng.

Boasting an intense, almost opaque ruby ​​color, it offers superb aromas typical of Syrah: a variety of red and blackberry fruits, bacon, smoked meat, and an incredible floral character that develops with aeration. On the palate, it is medium-bodied to full-bodied, but more elegant and subtle than the Sine Qua Non of yesteryear. It reveals perfect balance, remarkable freshness and elegance, silky tannins, and an exceptionally long finish. Still young, it requires extended decanting before drinking (this bottle revealed its full potential on the second day, when it was opened). It will benefit from aging for 4 to 5 years in the bottle and can then be cellared for up to 20 years.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Valade \u0026 Transandine","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":55842145173852,"sku":null,"price":380.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0284\/0032\/0643\/files\/SineQuaNon-DistentaISyrah-Etats-unis.png?v=1761756489"},{"product_id":"sine-qua-non-distenta-i-grenache-etats-unis","title":"Sine Qua Non - Distenta I Grenache - 2019","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSine Qua \u003cspan class=\"styles_wordWithSynonyms__8M9z7\"\u003eNon\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003cspan class=\"styles_wordWithSynonyms__8M9z7\"\u003eis\u003c\/span\u003e \u003cspan class=\"styles_wordWithSynonyms__8M9z7\"\u003earguably\u003c\/span\u003e \u003cspan class=\"styles_wordWithSynonyms__8M9z7\"\u003eCalifornia's\u003c\/span\u003e \u003cspan class=\"styles_wordWithSynonyms__8M9z7\"\u003emost\u003c\/span\u003e \u003cspan class=\"styles_wordWithSynonyms__8M9z7\"\u003ecult\u003c\/span\u003e \u003cspan class=\"styles_wordWithSynonyms__8M9z7\"\u003eproducer\u003c\/span\u003e \u003cspan class=\"styles_wordWithSynonyms__8M9z7\"\u003e.\u003c\/span\u003e \u003cspan class=\"styles_wordWithSynonyms__8M9z7\"\u003eIts\u003c\/span\u003e \u003cspan class=\"styles_wordWithSynonyms__8M9z7\"\u003ewines\u003c\/span\u003e are \u003cspan class=\"styles_wordWithSynonyms__8M9z7\"\u003eextremely\u003c\/span\u003e \u003cspan class=\"styles_wordWithSynonyms__8M9z7\"\u003erare\u003c\/span\u003e , \u003cspan class=\"styles_wordWithSynonyms__8M9z7\"\u003eproduced\u003c\/span\u003e \u003cspan class=\"styles_wordWithSynonyms__8M9z7\"\u003ein\u003c\/span\u003e \u003cspan class=\"styles_wordWithSynonyms__8M9z7\"\u003esmall\u003c\/span\u003e \u003cspan class=\"styles_wordWithSynonyms__8M9z7\"\u003equantities\u003c\/span\u003e , \u003cspan class=\"styles_wordWithSynonyms__8M9z7\"\u003esometimes\u003c\/span\u003e \u003cspan class=\"styles_wordWithSynonyms__8M9z7\"\u003eonly\u003c\/span\u003e \u003cspan class=\"styles_wordWithSynonyms__8M9z7\"\u003ea\u003c\/span\u003e \u003cspan class=\"styles_wordWithSynonyms__8M9z7\"\u003efew\u003c\/span\u003e barrels. \u003cspan class=\"styles_wordWithSynonyms__8M9z7\"\u003eNeedless\u003c\/span\u003e \u003cspan class=\"styles_wordWithSynonyms__8M9z7\"\u003eto\u003c\/span\u003e \u003cspan class=\"styles_wordWithSynonyms__8M9z7\"\u003esay\u003c\/span\u003e \u003cspan class=\"styles_wordWithSynonyms__8M9z7\"\u003e,\u003c\/span\u003e you \u003cspan class=\"styles_wordWithSynonyms__8M9z7\"\u003ehave to\u003c\/span\u003e join \u003cspan class=\"styles_wordWithSynonyms__8M9z7\"\u003ea\u003c\/span\u003e waiting \u003cspan class=\"styles_wordWithSynonyms__8M9z7\"\u003elist\u003c\/span\u003e \u003cspan class=\"styles_wordWithSynonyms__8M9z7\"\u003eto\u003c\/span\u003e \u003cspan class=\"styles_wordWithSynonyms__8M9z7\"\u003eget\u003c\/span\u003e your hands on \u003cspan class=\"styles_wordWithSynonyms__8M9z7\"\u003ethem\u003c\/span\u003e . \u003cspan class=\"styles_wordWithSynonyms__8M9z7\"\u003eAnother\u003c\/span\u003e \u003cspan class=\"styles_wordWithSynonyms__8M9z7\"\u003eimportant\u003c\/span\u003e \u003cspan class=\"styles_wordWithSynonyms__8M9z7\"\u003echaracteristic\u003c\/span\u003e \u003cspan class=\"styles_wordWithSynonyms__8M9z7\"\u003eis\u003c\/span\u003e \u003cspan class=\"styles_wordWithSynonyms__8M9z7\"\u003ethat\u003c\/span\u003e \u003cspan class=\"styles_wordWithSynonyms__8M9z7\"\u003ethe\u003c\/span\u003e \u003cspan class=\"styles_wordWithSynonyms__8M9z7\"\u003eestate\u003c\/span\u003e is owned \u003cspan class=\"styles_wordWithSynonyms__8M9z7\"\u003eby\u003c\/span\u003e the \u003cspan class=\"styles_wordWithSynonyms__8M9z7\"\u003eiconoclastic\u003c\/span\u003e Austrian artist \u003cspan class=\"styles_wordWithSynonyms__8M9z7\"\u003eand\u003c\/span\u003e \u003cspan class=\"styles_wordWithSynonyms__8M9z7\"\u003erestaurateur\u003c\/span\u003e \u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan class=\"styles_wordWithSynonyms__8M9z7\"\u003eManfred\u003c\/span\u003e Krakl\u003c\/strong\u003e .

It was fermented with 43.5% whole clusters (primarily Grenache) and aged for 23 months, 26.5% of which were in new French oak barrels. With an intense ruby-purple color, it exudes aromas of crushed blackberries and blueberries, tar, coffee beans, cracked pepper, and thyme. The ample palate displays a fine tannic structure, harmonious acidity, and a succession of fruity, spicy, and floral notes. Its persistence suggests significant aging potential. 1,536 cases and 600 magnums will be available in spring 2022. This 2019 vintage is made almost exclusively from estate-grown grapes – only 15% come from the Bien Nacido vineyard in the Santa Maria Valley.

Unfortunately, it's all too common, especially among novices, to believe that all of California's cult wines are overripe or heavy.

The 2020 Eleven Confessions Vineyard Syrah offers an exceptional nose of red and blue fruits, ground pepper, graphite, cured meats, and spices, with some marine and saline nuances typical of the Sta. Rita Hills. With a dense and powerful palate, rich aromas and flavors, intense fruitiness, and developing tannins, this wine will benefit from 2 to 4 years of cellaring and will continue to amaze you for the next two decades. It reminds me of the 2005 Nail in my Cranium, with its massive, powerful, yet perfectly balanced style, and I wouldn't be surprised to see it evolve in a similar way. The 2020 vintage is composed of 84% Syrah, 12% Grenache and the rest Petite Sirah and white grape varieties, fermented with a quarter of whole bunches and aged for 38 months in oak barrels.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eVinous (Antonio Galloni) – Rated 98:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e \u003cspan\u003eThe 2020 Eleven Confessions Vineyard Syrah is darkly beautiful and exotic.

It offers a profusion of blue fruit, kirsch, pepper, and spice, all enhanced by a velvety and silky palate, smooth tannins, a lack of harshness, and remarkable length.

I expect the finished wine to be more generous. Touches of Grenache, Petite Sirah, Mourvèdre, Muscat, and Petit Manseng round out the blend.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e \u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan\u003eWine Advocate (Robert Parker)\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003cspan\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e– Rated 94+:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n \u003cp\u003e\u003cspan dir=\"auto\"\u003eThe 2022 Syrah Distenta IV is composed \u003cspan\u003eof 82.7% Syrah,\u003c\/span\u003e 6% Grenache, 5% Petite Sirah, 3.3% Mourvèdre, and small amounts of Petit Manseng and Muscat.

The nose opens with powerful, smoky aromas of blue fruit, with pleasant notes of fennel, anise, and white pepper that quickly intensify. The palate is full, opulent, and highly extracted, enveloped in a smooth and precise texture that leads to a taut and intimate finish, unfolding in a manner similar to the nose. Although I suspect this wine will gain depth and complexity after a year or two, the style of these wines makes their hedonistic youth particularly appealing – and there will be more than enough to make it a pleasant wine when it is released in January 2025.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Valade \u0026 Transandine","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":55852107825500,"sku":null,"price":380.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0284\/0032\/0643\/files\/SineQuaNon-DistentaVISyrah-Etats-unis.png?v=1761844490"},{"product_id":"sine-qua-non-distenta-iv-grenache-etats-unis","title":"Sine Qua Non - Distenta IV Grenache - 2022","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSine Qua \u003cspan class=\"styles_wordWithSynonyms__8M9z7\"\u003eNon\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003cspan class=\"styles_wordWithSynonyms__8M9z7\"\u003eis\u003c\/span\u003e \u003cspan class=\"styles_wordWithSynonyms__8M9z7\"\u003earguably\u003c\/span\u003e \u003cspan class=\"styles_wordWithSynonyms__8M9z7\"\u003eCalifornia's\u003c\/span\u003e \u003cspan class=\"styles_wordWithSynonyms__8M9z7\"\u003emost\u003c\/span\u003e \u003cspan class=\"styles_wordWithSynonyms__8M9z7\"\u003ecult\u003c\/span\u003e \u003cspan class=\"styles_wordWithSynonyms__8M9z7\"\u003eproducer\u003c\/span\u003e \u003cspan class=\"styles_wordWithSynonyms__8M9z7\"\u003e.\u003c\/span\u003e \u003cspan class=\"styles_wordWithSynonyms__8M9z7\"\u003eIts\u003c\/span\u003e \u003cspan class=\"styles_wordWithSynonyms__8M9z7\"\u003ewines\u003c\/span\u003e are \u003cspan class=\"styles_wordWithSynonyms__8M9z7\"\u003eextremely\u003c\/span\u003e \u003cspan class=\"styles_wordWithSynonyms__8M9z7\"\u003erare\u003c\/span\u003e , \u003cspan class=\"styles_wordWithSynonyms__8M9z7\"\u003eproduced\u003c\/span\u003e \u003cspan class=\"styles_wordWithSynonyms__8M9z7\"\u003ein\u003c\/span\u003e \u003cspan class=\"styles_wordWithSynonyms__8M9z7\"\u003esmall\u003c\/span\u003e \u003cspan class=\"styles_wordWithSynonyms__8M9z7\"\u003equantities\u003c\/span\u003e , \u003cspan class=\"styles_wordWithSynonyms__8M9z7\"\u003esometimes\u003c\/span\u003e \u003cspan class=\"styles_wordWithSynonyms__8M9z7\"\u003eonly\u003c\/span\u003e \u003cspan class=\"styles_wordWithSynonyms__8M9z7\"\u003ea\u003c\/span\u003e \u003cspan class=\"styles_wordWithSynonyms__8M9z7\"\u003efew\u003c\/span\u003e barrels. \u003cspan class=\"styles_wordWithSynonyms__8M9z7\"\u003eNeedless\u003c\/span\u003e \u003cspan class=\"styles_wordWithSynonyms__8M9z7\"\u003eto\u003c\/span\u003e \u003cspan class=\"styles_wordWithSynonyms__8M9z7\"\u003esay\u003c\/span\u003e \u003cspan class=\"styles_wordWithSynonyms__8M9z7\"\u003e,\u003c\/span\u003e you \u003cspan class=\"styles_wordWithSynonyms__8M9z7\"\u003ehave to\u003c\/span\u003e join \u003cspan class=\"styles_wordWithSynonyms__8M9z7\"\u003ea\u003c\/span\u003e waiting \u003cspan class=\"styles_wordWithSynonyms__8M9z7\"\u003elist\u003c\/span\u003e \u003cspan class=\"styles_wordWithSynonyms__8M9z7\"\u003eto\u003c\/span\u003e \u003cspan class=\"styles_wordWithSynonyms__8M9z7\"\u003eget\u003c\/span\u003e your hands on \u003cspan class=\"styles_wordWithSynonyms__8M9z7\"\u003ethem\u003c\/span\u003e . \u003cspan class=\"styles_wordWithSynonyms__8M9z7\"\u003eAnother\u003c\/span\u003e \u003cspan class=\"styles_wordWithSynonyms__8M9z7\"\u003eimportant\u003c\/span\u003e \u003cspan class=\"styles_wordWithSynonyms__8M9z7\"\u003echaracteristic\u003c\/span\u003e \u003cspan class=\"styles_wordWithSynonyms__8M9z7\"\u003eis\u003c\/span\u003e \u003cspan class=\"styles_wordWithSynonyms__8M9z7\"\u003ethat\u003c\/span\u003e \u003cspan class=\"styles_wordWithSynonyms__8M9z7\"\u003ethe\u003c\/span\u003e \u003cspan class=\"styles_wordWithSynonyms__8M9z7\"\u003eestate\u003c\/span\u003e is owned \u003cspan class=\"styles_wordWithSynonyms__8M9z7\"\u003eby\u003c\/span\u003e the \u003cspan class=\"styles_wordWithSynonyms__8M9z7\"\u003eiconoclastic\u003c\/span\u003e Austrian artist \u003cspan class=\"styles_wordWithSynonyms__8M9z7\"\u003eand\u003c\/span\u003e \u003cspan class=\"styles_wordWithSynonyms__8M9z7\"\u003erestaurateur\u003c\/span\u003e \u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan class=\"styles_wordWithSynonyms__8M9z7\"\u003eManfred\u003c\/span\u003e Krankl\u003c\/strong\u003e .
