Established in 1994, Sine Qua Non is possibly one of the most famous Californian cult wineries. The creation of maverick winemaker, Manfred Krankl, this winery is world-famous for producing miniscule quantities of unique Rhône Valley-inspired blends using fruit from high quality vineyards across the Central Coast. `Dangerous Birds Grenache 2007` is composed of 88% Grenache, 10% Syrah and 2% Viognier.

The 2007 Dangerous Birds Grenache is a stellar representation of Sine Qua Non's winemaking artistry, featuring a rich and complex profile with layers of red and dark fruit, spices, and earthy notes. This vintage is highly praised for its elegance, balance, and depth. Layers of raspberry, black cherry, licorice, lavender, and pepper, with a velvety texture and a lengthy, refined finish.
