Sine Qua Non, Ode to E, Grenache 2004 Burgundy Rouge while white pepper100 points Wine Advocate Leading off with the Grenache driven efforts, and easily the greatest expression of the variety Ive ever tasted from California, the 2004 Ode to E (Grenache) is mind blowing stuff that will stand toe to toe with the greatest Grenache based wines ever made. Coming from Manfreds Eleven Confessions Vineyard and comprised of 88% Grenache, 10% Syrah and 2% Viognier, it sports a still vibrant purple color to go with off the hook
