Sine Qua Non Distenta IV Grenache 2022The Sine Qua Non wines were founded in 1994 by Manfred and Elaine Krankl in Ventura, on California's Central Coast, the winery can be described as the epitome of an artisanal, cult winery. The estate farms four different vineyards, each with different soils, micro climates and a different but loving approach, that all share farming practices that are gentle, hands on, natural (although not certified, they are essentially organic) and consistent.
