What can I say? These new and upcoming releases from Sine Qua Non and Elaine and Manfred Krankl are off the charts. In particular, the two 2018s I tasted from barrel make me incredibly curious to taste the rest of the wines from that vintage. Despite their massive successes, the Krankls have not slowed down at all. They continue to develop new vineyards and add wines at sister projects The Third Twin and Next of Kyn, both of which continue to grow in stature.

This is another super-impressive set of wines from Manfred and Elaine Krankl. At a stage in their lives when they could be slowing down, the Krankls keep adding new wines to their range. The quality and singularity of these wines have never been greater. As always, the Sine Qua Non wines are rich and textured, but, as I have written here in the past, they have also gained considerably in nuance. My tasting at Sine Qua Non was one of the highlights of my June trip through greater Santa Barbara.
