A blend of 78% Petite Sirah, 12.3% Touriga Nacional, 6.7% Mourvèdre, and 3% white varieties, it was fermented with 20% whole clusters and spent 30 months in 36% new French oak. Blackberries, roasted meats, leather, smoke, and iron nuances all flow from this beauty. Full-bodied and balanced, with a deep, layered mid-palate, it’s velvety and voluptuous on the palate, with nicely integrated acidity, ripe tannins, and a great finish. This is a big, concentrated, powerful wine that’s just about overflowing with character. Give bottles 3-4 years if you can and it should keep for 15+ in cold cellars.

The No. 16 is a monstrous, bombastic wine that's amplified in every dimension. Blackberry preserves, black licorice, star anise, chaparral, French vanilla and powerful peppery nuances saturate the palate with confidence and unashamed opulence. The inclusion of 20% whole clusters across the blend exalts the natural structure of Petite Sirah in a very warm, dry vintage, while the 12.3% Touriga Nacional in the blend provides propulsive, mouthwatering acidity. This could use a couple of years to integrate some of its youthful exuberance\u003c\/em\u003e.\"- Vinous. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eVarietal: 78% Petite Sirah, 12.3% Touriga Nacional, 6.7% Mourvedre and 3% White Varietites.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"XXI","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52299528241333,"sku":null,"price":479.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/www.spirowines.com\/products\/next-of-kyn-sine-qua-non-no-16-2022","provider":"Spiro Wines","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
