This Sine Qua Non Jusqu'a l'Os offers an intriguing blend of dark fruit, spice and minerality on the nose.On the palate, it is medium-bodied, with a complex array of flavors, including blackberry, dark cherry, dried herbs and sweet tobacco, as well as notes of cedar, graphite and wet stone. The finish is long and lingering, with a hint of smoke. This is an excellent wine, with a great balance of structure, acidity and depth.
