About the manufacturer
Sine Qua Non
Sine Qua Non is a California winery from Paso Robles, renowned for its unconventional and extremely limited productions. The founder and winemaker follows a radical philosophy: each bottle is a work of art, each Vintage an experiment with its own name and often its own design.
You won't find any standard Wines here. Sine Qua Non works with unusual grape blends and boldly experiments with vinification and style. Wines like "The Hated Hunter" or "Kolibri" are an expression of this artistic freedom – intense, complex, and often polarizing. The winery deliberately produces in tiny quantities, making these Wines highly sought-after collector's items.
Quality is non-negotiable. Despite the playful approach, the Wines produced possess great depth and aging potential, offering a unique interpretation of the Californian terroir. Each bottling tells a story and challenges you to reconsider your expectations of taste.
At Wine In Time you will find a curated selection of these rare treasures – for all those who dare to drink beyond the ordinary.

The Sine Qua Non Ode to E 2004 is a tribute to Manfred Krankl's uncompromising winemaking in California. From the legendary Ventura winery comes this exceptional Grenache, which pushes the boundaries of what is possible. Sine Qua Non stands for unique, limited-edition Wines – each Vintage a work of art, each bottle a collector's item. This 2004 Vintage from the Californian wine region embodies Krankl's vision of concentration and elegance.
The vinification follows artisanal precision: old Grenache vines, meticulously selected grapes, spontaneous fermentation, and aging in French barriques. The result is a wine of breathtaking density combined with finesse. The high alcohol content of 16,2% is perfectly integrated, giving the Sine Qua Non Ode to E 2004 a velvety, almost oily texture that sets it apart from conventional Wines.
On the nose, an opulent bouquet of dark cherries, blackberries, and cassis unfolds, underpinned by notes of dark chocolate, licorice, and a hint of garrigue herbs. The palate reveals a rich fruitiness with perfectly integrated acidity, velvety tannins, and impressive depth. The finish is long, spicy, and minerally precise – a wine that can age for decades.
At Wine In Time Vienna, you can get this rare wine delivered directly to your home with express shipping. Also, discover our selection of Red Wines , featuring other exceptional Wines from around the world.
