2005 vintage. From what I'm told, this was the last SQN pinot noir officially released by the winery. Apparently they still maintain some pinot noir vines but who truly knows where it all goes. Good cinnamon, baking spice and body. Light-medium/medium body. 15.2% ABV but not tasting like it was ever rambunctious. Expected extracted/heavvy bodied PN but no. Enduring earthiness as an indigestion-styled experience...on the post-palate. Drinking pleasantly and can do so for another handful of years. 8.25.25.

Took a while to open up. At first, it’s all alcohol then red fruit, hint of spice, green tea, not much oak. Surprisingly a short finish.

2005 Sine Qua Non "Over & Out" Pinot Noir, or, as it says on the back of the bottle "pinotmore" as this was Manfred's last. Beautiful garnet hues with an opulent and seductive bouquet of fruits, flowers and smokey herbs on the nose. On the palate, ripe cherries predominate with hints of cinnamon, cola and candied orange rind nicely balanced against earthy notes of smoke, leather and freshly baked bread. Good acidity. Complex and perfectly balanced, there's an elegance to this wine which takes it to another level. 12 years young with years ahead of it. My favorite SQN Pinot. Makes me wish Manfred hadn't abandoned the Pinot Project. I can just imagine what they would be today. Thinking of forming a consortium to buy some quality Pinot grapes from Shea Vineyard and seeing if Manfred will make us a barrel. Who's in?

Great powerful wine for a Pinot noir. This rare things that Mandred likes to do. Love SNQ.

Sweet black cherries and Spring flowers with a touch of truffles thrown in. Savory texture. I miss Manfred's Pinot riffs.
