Top Notes For
Byron C Mayes

Glass-clinging red purple. Abundant nose of purple plum and roses, adding a bit of graphite when echoed on the full bodied palate. Medium acidity. Fuzzy medium tannins. Finish takes on a dark, charred note but is still noticeably fruity. The definition of Washington (Walla Walla) Cabernet: New World fruit with Old World structure. Enjoy with steaks, grilled meats and vegetables, and American beef stew. Drink now through 2028.
