Rare 2021 release from cult winery Fingers Crossed.

97 Points Jeb Dunnuck: "The Fingers Crossed 2021 Syrah Unanswered Prayers is more inky and reserved, with tons of gamey black fruits, iron, game, bay leaf, and peppery, bacon fat-like nuances. Needing air to show at its best, it's full-bodied and concentrated, with a broad, layered mouthfeel, a beautiful sense of freshness, ripe tannins, and a great finish. This classic, complex, incredibly compelling Santa Barbara County Syrah has tons to love and a singular character. Hide bottles for just 2-3 years if you can and enjoy over the following 10-15 years."

"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
