Third red from Black Ankle and first Syrah. Bright ruby red. Love the nose, slight iron and savory notes. Slightly stinky and almost a note of compost. Palate had some slight greenery and savory notes. Undertones of red fruits too. Moderate tannins (7/10) with some nice acidity. Moderate body and long, lingering finish. Will gain some nice complexity with time. Drink till 2025.

Exceptional. Bright fruit, aged incredibly nicely. Have one more bottle that I kinda want to hot for a year or two more.

Initial tasting for this vintage today at Black Ankle. Delicious now. One of their best.
