Porthos Insider Scoop:
If you like SINE QUA NON wines you’ll LOVE this new release from Manfred Krankel’s winemaker. This inaugural release is very, very similar to SINE QUA NON’S Oregon Pinot ($300/bottle - 96 points) except that the price is 1/6 and it’s not sold out (yet). Simply stated, this is the #1 finest Oregon Pinot under $50 we’ve discovered and our pick for the next 'Cult' Pinot craze!!!

Tasting Notes:
This is a racy wine that will reward those with the patience to indulge in it over the course of an evening. Persistent fruit flavors cradle an intricate mixture of spice and oak - all carried by that luxurious creamy texture that Pinot lovers are always on the look out for. If you're drinking it tonight, enjoy after decanting for up to 60 minutes. This gorgeous Pinot will easily cellar for 5-7 years and provide healthy dividends to the patient soul that is able to show such restraint!
