For the Dad Who Appreciates a Great Bottle
This Father's Day weekend, we're handing over the Featured Tasting to the dads of Black Ankle. We're pouring a collection of wines they've hand picked. Creating a tasting that is crafted by our Black Ankle dads. See their picks below and bring home a bottle (or two) for the dad in your life.
2024 Rosé
If Ed Boyce found himself stranded on a desert island, he'd certainly miss his vineyard — but not as much as he'd miss a glass of crisp, dry rosé. Refreshing in the heat, endlessly food-friendly, and perfectly balanced between vibrant fruit and mouthwatering acidity, a dry Rosé is Ed's ultimate desert-island wine (and Father's Day pick).
2021 Malintzi
When asked what bottle they'd most want to share around the table, the fathers of the Black Ankle vineyard crew didn't hesitate — the 2021 Malintzi. Made in the traditional méthode champenoise, this sparkling wine feels worthy of life's biggest fiestas, but it's just as perfect for the everyday moments that matter most.
2023 Passeggiata
As Tony prepares to take on his newest and most exciting role — becoming a dad this September — he's finding himself appreciating life's simple pleasures a little more. For him, Passeggiata captures that feeling of optimism and joy: a wine to celebrate the journey, the milestones, and all the unforgettable moments still to come.
2021 Phyllite
Named for the distinctive metamorphic rock found throughout the vineyard, Phyllite is a wine that rewards curiosity and contemplation. Matthew loves how the wine reflects both the power and elegance of Syrah, making it a perfect bottle to linger over with family. Looking to experience one of Black Ankle's most distinctive and premium wines? 2021 Phyllite is his pick without hesitation.
Whether you're celebrating a father, a grandfather, a mentor, a friend, or simply gathering with people you love, these are wines meant to be shared. As you explore each one, you may find a bottle that's perfect for this weekend's table — and another that's worth saving for a future occasion.
