Sine Qua Non (pronounced "sin-kwa-non") isn’t just a name—it’s Latin for "without which, nothing." In other words, the essential, the irreplaceable, the one thing you can’t do without. And for collectors, that’s exactly what these wines are. Manfred and Elaine Krankl turned their garage into a cult winery that defies tradition. Each vintage is a singular expression, never to be repeated, and each label is a work of art, personally designed by the Krankls. From the wind-swept vineyards of Santa Barbara to the sandy soils of Sta. Rita Hills, these Rhône-inspired Syrahs and Grenache thrive in some of California’s most distinctive terroirs, yielding wines with unmistakable power and finesse.

We’ve just acquired a new selection of these coveted masterpieces, including some of the rarest Syrahs and Grenache bottlings, each crafted with meticulous detail.
