RATINGS

96-99Jeb Dunnuck

Spiced red and black berry fruits, ground pepper, herbes de Provence, and savory flower notes...incredibly textured, full-bodied...velvety tannins, a round, layered mouthfeel, and a great finish.

93+ Vinous / IWC

...potent, deeply layered wine. Plum, black cherry, lavender, spice and crushed rocks are all amplified in this intense, dense red.

PRODUCER

Fingers Crossed

Fingers Crossed, (formerly "FÆTHM") is the project from Nikolas Krankl, son of celebrated winemaker and creator of Sine Qua Non, Manfred Krankl. Nikolas and wife Julia began production in 2017 and released their first allocation in the spring of 2020. Describing their style as “…unabashedly Californian; sun-kissed wines that are decadent, perfumed, opulent and regal,” their offerings take some inspiration from SQN, including two different Syrahs, one of which is sourced just feet from the vineyard where Manfred produced SQN’s first Syrah ‘Queen of Spades’ in 1994.
