Delicious and easy drinking, our 2019 Chardonnay will become your go to white and will go with just about anything you’d want to pair with it. Lovely aromas and flavors of citrus, tropical and white fruits, and lovely florals, this wine’s juicy acidity and smooth easy nature are sure to please straight through to that long mineral and citrus zest finish.
Aromas of toasted pineapple, ripe stone-fruit, citrus blossom/honeysuckle, hint of toasted marshmallow, vanilla, almond, and a hint of floral. The palette is creamy and rich, with moderate acidity. Flavors of honey, almond, caramel on the finish, lemon curd, mineral, pineapple and peach, and white cake.
Our Slate 6 shows lots of enticing aromas of dark and red fruits that meld with rich notes of sweet wood, tobacco, baking spice, and floral and culminate with a long, warm, lingering finish.
Our 2017 Syrah is an easy drinking, medium-bodied wine that is chock-full of lovely aromas and flavors. Dark berries and fruit, an herbal note, and spice all lead to a long warm finish that blends ripe plum and pepper.
The 2016 Black Ankle Estate is our flagship, limited-production, Bordeaux-style blend that is only made from excellent vintage years. This wine is a full-bodied red with plenty of verve that presents aromas and flavors of red and dark fruits, sweet wood, tobacco leaf, baking spice, chocolate, vanilla, and has enough juicy acidity and firm tannins to keep you on your toes.
The Estate is a wine we want to mark as our "flagship wine", our signature wine, the best that Black Ankle can produce. As vines age, the fruit improves. So from our first bottling we knew our wines should get better and better. We always had the idea that once the vines grew up enough to produce it, there would be still another tier above the Crumbling Rock. That is the Black Ankle Estate, and 2015 is the first bottling :-)
Need an after dinner dessert wine? Terra Dulce VIII is our Port-style blend. Great with a fruit, nut and cheese plate or with bitter sweet chocolate. This dessert wine is filled with aromas and flavors of rich dried fruits, spice, nut and caramelized sugar notes that will bring out the flavors of any dessert.
