Byron C Mayes

9.1

Star bright pale yellow with just a hint of beige (from the barrel). Heavenly nose of grapefruit rind and fines herbes. Medium light palate gives the same adding flinty mineral, green apple, and balsa wood all buttressed by moderate, tingly acidity from entry to medium finish. Solidly Marlborough with French finesse, this is what NZ SB aspires to be. Well balanced for sipping or with a surprisingly wide range of meals. Seafood and greens are at the top of the list. Could hold for a year or so, but drink now for optimal experience. — a year ago

This wine is of royal sort of grape from Piemonte. Very mineral, as if I just entered a freshly whitewashed room , lime and also steel is very noticeable. In the taste carbonated duchess , peach 🥧 pie and light bitter aftertaste of almonds, naturally low acidity. — 7 years ago

This is the sexy librarian. This is the duchess who wears a bra as a top. To church. — 10 years ago

Bright and snappy. Paired with cream of duchess soup and the acidity cut nicely with the effervescence giving some texture. — 5 years ago
