Byron 2016 Nielson Vineyard Pinot Noir
The Nielson Vineyard’s location at the warmer, eastern end of the Santa Maria Valley accounts for the wine’s dark color and ripe flavor profile. Prior to fermentation, the Pinot Noir clusters were 100% de-stemmed and kept cold for 5 days to accentuate the naturally smooth texture of this estate grown fruit. Rose petal and dark cherry with hints of graphite and green tea.
