Tasted before bottling, the 2022 Syrah Life And Death is the first single-variety bottling from Fingers Crossed. It has a deep ruby-purple color and scents of blueberry and blackberry preserves, violet, graphite and tar, with streaks of orange peel and exotic spices. The full-bodied palate is concentrated yet seamless, with a juicy core of fruit, plush tannins and a long, layered finish.
