Byron 1998 Pinot Noir (Santa Maria Valley)

Country: US /
Variety: Pinot Noir California
Winery: Byron / Santa Maria Valley

This is a light wine—light in fruit, acid and tannins, and light in body. That doesn’t mean it doesn’t offer a lot of pleasure. It does. It has complex herbal, berry and spice flavors, and it’s nicely dry, with a certain richness. It’s a great wine for early drinking.
