Winery Notes:
2012 Petite Sirah from Third Twin and Cumulus Vyds
- This is the first Sine Qua Non bottling of Petite Sirah as the primary grape.
- It is a blend of 94% Petite Sirah and 6% Viognier.
- It was aged in 80% old hogsheads and 20% in new French oak.
- 80% is from the Third Twin Vineyard and 20% from the Cumulus Vineyard.
- It was bottled only in magnum.
- It was sold in a box with a special edition of the Sine Qua Non label art book The Art of Sine Qua Non.
- Shipped in April 2015.
- Offered in March 2015 via an email which said in part:
Since we are E & M from Sine Qua Non, we had to complicate things just a little bit more. Aside from the delightful
standardbooks we also produced 350 of a COLLECTOR'S EDITION. These specialties will carry a serial number, will be signed by Manfred and come packed in a gorgeous bamboo wood box along with a magnum of 2012 Petite Sirah namedThe Writing On The Wall. This will be the only way this fabulous wine is going to be available. It is 94% Petite Sirah and 6% Viognier from our three Estate vineyards … The Third Twin, Cumulus and Eleven Confessions. Only 356 of these absolute beauties were filled. I wouldn't dare miss this rarity.
