2022 Darkness Syrah
The Darkness Syrah v.2022 is an almost mystical combination of power, finesse, fruitiness and earthiness, with a spectacular nose of savory earthiness loaded with black fruited magic. The palate is stuffed with rich, silky flavors of blackberry, black olive, coffee, cracked pepper and forest floor vibes to deliver a phantasmagoria of tasty goodness. A desert island wine for sure!

FOUNDERS’ NOTES:
Darkness is our full throttle, wide-open desert island syrah from the Yakima Valley. Dick Boushey and Leif Olsen are arguably among the finest syrah growers in our universe today. We decided to make this wine in 2005 and have never looked back. It has gobs of high scores from many publications, including a 94 from Robert Parker's Wine Advocate for the 2014. It's called Darkness because.
