Lot #594. Sine Qua Non Proprietary White Résisté 2013

Description: Consists of 2 Bottles, 0.75L
Score: 97 WA.
"Scheduled to be released in November 2015, the 2013 White Wine Résisté is a sensational white from California that's made from 45% Roussanne, 26% Chardonnay, 14% Petite Manseng, 10% Viognier and 5% Marsanne that spent 19 months in 46% new French oak and the balance in concrete eggs and used barrels. Possessing rock-star levels of richness and texture on the palate, with full-bodied depth and power that never seems heavy or cumbersome, it has classic SQN white notes of buttered golden fruits, honeysuckle, honeycomb, toast and white flowers. Unctuous, full-flavored and still lively and fresh, it . . . will keep for two decades." eRobertParker.com #220, Aug 2015
Provenance: The Irlandais Cellar
Notes: 1 Very lightly scuffed wax capsule, 1 very lightly scuffed label.
