Fingers Crossed Wine Brain Teaser Syrah 2023

Rare new release from cult winery Fingers Crossed. 100 Points Jeb Dunnuck: "Last of the barrel samples, the Fingers Crossed 2023 Syrah Brain Teaser comes from the Bien Nacido, Stolpman, Rancho Boa Vista, and Sanger vineyards and is 77% Syrah and the balance Petite Sirah and Graciano. Its deep purple hue is followed by a riveting nose of blackberries, peppery, sappy, resinous herbs, and violets. With full-bodied richness and polished tannins, as well as a seamless, flawless overall profile on the palate, this absolutely brilliant barrel sample has perfection written all over it." "The son of Manfred Krankl at Sine Qua Non, Nicolas, along with his wife Julia, created Faethm (Now Called Fingers Crossed) in 2017, and their first release, which immediately sold out, went live in 2019. I can’t recall a new estate that has impressed me as much right out of the gate and these 2017 and 2018s are truly brilliant wines.” - Jeb Dunnuck
