Sine Qua Non Mr. K The Noble Man 2005: a Chardonnay sweet wine in a half bottle
The 2005 Mr. K The Noble Man is made from 100% Chardonnay of the Alban Vineyard and carries 235 grams of residual sugar per litre. It comes in a 0.375 L bottle, the only size in which the Mr. K wines were bottled.
Wines named Noble Man are made from botrytis-affected grapes in the TBA style.

Mr. K: a sweet-wine project with Alois Kracher
Mr. K was a sweet-wine project of Manfred and Elaine Krankl, the owners of Sine Qua Non, with the Austrian winemaker Alois Kracher. The first Mr. K vintage was 1998.
The wine is separate from the Mr. K Straw Man of 2005, which is a Marsanne from Beckmen Vineyard. The Noble Man of 2005 is Chardonnay only.

From Queen of Spades to Mr. K: Sine Qua Non in Ventura County
Sine Qua Non is a California winery in Ventura County. Its first vintage was 1994, a Syrah called Queen of Spades made in four and a half barrels, and the winery has since focused on Rhône varieties. Until 2021 each Sine Qua Non wine carried its own name, label and bottle style.
The fruit for this bottle comes from the Alban Vineyard and the wine is listed under San Luis Obispo County, so it sits in the California range alongside other American wines in the wine section.

235 g/L in a half bottle: the Noble Man
The Noble Man has 235 g/L of residual sugar and was bottled only in 375 ml bottles.
