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. Though most celebrated for their red and white wines, they have over the years produced tiny amounts of dry rosé. Pagan Poetry is made from 100% Syrah and was bottled in both frosted and unfrosted bottles.

This 2001 vintage of the Pagan Poetry Syrah Rose from Sine Qua Non is a remarkable representation of Syrah as a rosé. Half-bottle format emphasizes its rarity and collectibility. The wine exhibits a beautiful balance of acidity and fruit, with notes of red berries, hints of spice, and a slight mineral undertone.

The Syrah collection from Sine Qua Non showcases the winery's adept handling of this Rhone varietal, presenting wines of depth and complexity.

Sine Qua Non is a California winery known for its Rhône style blends, a tendency to avoid repetition, and highly limited production of wine that’s often difficult to obtain. It was founded by Manfred Krankl and his wife Elaine. The winery is located in Ventura County, within the Central Coast region of California.
