We believe that knowing where a wine comes from
and how it is made enhances the pleasure you receive from it. We
invite you to look Inside Io. Crafted by the talented winemaking
staff at the Byron Winery, Io salutes the pioneering legacy of Santa
Barbara County. Inspired by his admiration for Rhone Style wines
Io was introduced by Byron’s former winemaker Ken Brown. We
are now featuring three wines under the Io label, Io classic, Ryan
Road Syrah and an Upper Bench Syrah.
Io's dark fruit character is reminiscent of the
great Northern Rhone red wines, but its harmonious marriage of several
varieties reflects the artful blending of the Southern Rhone. Flavors
are ripe and well-focused with hints of dark cherry and earthiness
framed by a firm structure and smooth, mature tannins. Plush
and supple, the texture carries through to a long, velvety finish
-- a sign of even greater complexities to come with additional bottle
age.
