Founded in 1994 by Manfred and Elaine Krankl, Sine Qua Non is perhaps the most famous of all the California cult wineries and is renowned for producing exceptionally limited quantities of wines made from the classic varieties of the Rhône Valley. Rien Ne Va Plus is made from 100% Roussanne and just 100 cases were produced. It is dense, rich and opulent yet impeccably balanced throughout.

A masterpiece from Sine Qua Non, the Rien Ne Va Plus 2001 is a testament to the winery's dedication to quality and innovation. This blend showcases the depth and complexity achievable with Rhône varietals in California's climate. Rich and complex, with notes of honey, almond, apricot, and a hint of mineral undertones, followed by a long, elegantly balanced finish.

A collection notable for Rhône variety wines with a cult following, characterized by their rarity, unique labeling, and exceptional quality.
