Top Notes For
Byron C Mayes

Clear, dark ruby. Abundant nose of cherry lozenges and the coating on marzipan. Echoed on the medium palate which adds juicy blackberry, bright acidity, and "just enough" medium minus tannins. Finish is moderately long and continues the palate in a slightly darker mode. An excellent example of NZ Pinot Noir that's ready for any dish you can throw at it. Seafood, poultry, roast pork, and of course American Thanksgiving. Drink now.
