12/15/23, 1:03 PM - It sure was! Was breaking out some of my best bottles for my birthday.
10/5/23, 8:22 PM - I had this as a pop and pour. It didn't seem to need decanting, but perhaps it would have been even better with one!
8/12/23, 10:48 AM - I will have to try decanting next time, and see if that makes a difference. I also suspect that with the increased production in recent years that it would be hard to maintain the same quality as in the past, especially since Juan Mercado stepped away from production of the Realm wines a number of years ago, as he used to be the final taste tester of the blends.

I haven’t been on the SQN list for very long, so not a lot of experience yet. I drank 5 SQN Grenache wines before I had my first two SQN Syrahs, and the Grenache were all excellent! The Distenta I Syrah was superb, as good as almost any wine that I’ve ever had. The Eleven Confessions Syrah was also an excellent wine, but to me it was well away from the quality of the Distenta I.

6/20/23, 7:50 PM - All we did was open the bottle and leave it in the bottle for about an hour while we drank a Sine Qua Non Grenache first, and that seemed to work fine for us.
2/5/23, 2:16 PM - Yes, this might just have been an off bottle. It was my last one, so I may never know.
2/24/21, 8:43 PM - I actually had this more or less as a pop and pour We opened the bottle maybe half an hour before, but didn't decant it.
11/24/20, 9:14 PM - Yes, I sure have to agree that the Bard is a much better qpr than the Schrader, which is why I try to buy a lot of a Realm, and a small allocation of Schrader.
8/8/20, 8:11 PM - No decanting - I took it to a restaurant and had it as a pop and pour. But I did save a little to take home and finished it off the next day; not much difference.
6/2/20, 7:31 PM - I had this as a pop and pour and loved it. I tend not to decant older wines, and just like to see how they evolve over time in the glass and the bottle.
