Tasting Notes and Description

Tasting Notes For Sine Qua Non Distenta IV Syrah 2022

Sine Qua Non Distenta IV Syrah 2022 is a striking expression of power and finesse, showcasing the mastery of one of California’s most sought-after cult wineries. Known for pushing the boundaries of winemaking, Sine Qua Non crafts this Syrah-driven blend with meticulous attention to detail, resulting in a wine that is both intensely flavorful and elegantly structured. The 2022 Distenta IV is primarily Syrah, complemented by small amounts of Grenache, Mourvèdre, and Viognier, adding layers of complexity and aromatic intrigue.

Deep and opaque in the glass, this Syrah reveals a mesmerizing inky purple hue, hinting at the depth and concentration within. The nose is profoundly expressive, offering an explosion of blackberry compote, cassis, and ripe plum, intertwined with violets, cracked black pepper, smoked meat, and hints of dark chocolate and espresso. On the palate, the wine is bold yet impeccably balanced, boasting a velvety texture, plush tannins, and a seamless integration of oak. The flavors unfold in waves, delivering a rich core of black fruits, licorice, graphite, and savory umami notes, leading into a long, lingering finish with touches of minerality and spice.

As with all Sine Qua Non Syrahs, the Distenta IV 2022 is built for both immediate pleasure and long-term aging. While its youthful vibrancy and seductive texture make it thrilling to drink now, those with patience will be rewarded as it develops further layers of complexity over the next 10-15 years. This is a wine that pairs beautifully with grilled meats, braised short ribs, or aged cheeses, but it also stands as a statement piece on its own, embodying the bold, artistic spirit that defines Sine Qua Non.

Critic Ratings

Jeb Dunnuck - Rated 98:

Incorporating 6% Grenache, 5% Petite Sirah, 3% Mourvèdre, and 3% white varieties, the 2022 Syrah Distenta IV is another ripe, layered, full-bodied 2022 that’s going to deliver the goods. Ample blue fruits, kirsch liqueur, pepper, and tons of spicy notes all shine here, and this puppy has a layered, velvety mouthfeel, beautiful tannins, no hard edges, and awesome length. It's going to shine right out of the gate and is a good counterpoint to the more focused, cooler styled 2021s.
