Lot #2448. Sine Qua Non Proprietary Red Cumulus Vineyard Next of Kyn Release No ~ 3 2009

Description: Consists of 1 Magnum, 1.5L
Score: 96+ WA.
"A burst of black fruit, mocha, espresso and licorice hits the palate as the 2009 Syrah Next of Kyn shows off its inimitable personality. There is a pure voluptuousness in the 2009 that is striking. The immense purity of the fruit gives the 2009 tons of elegance and character. At the same time, big, rich, silky tannins form a backbone that allows the wine to show its expressiveness and pedigree. The 2009 is shaping up to be a jewel of a wine. In 2009, the blend is 80% Syrah, 14% Grenache and 6% Roussanne, all destemmed. The wine spent 30 months in French oak . . . . These are two gorgeous wines from Next of Kyn’s proprietors, Manfred and Elaine Krankl. The Next of Kyn wines are made exclusively from the Cumulus Vineyard, which surrounds the Krankls’ newly built winery in Oak View." Wine Advocate #202, Aug 2012
