Pursued by Bear Cabernet Sauvignon 2022 Review
We have watched this wine evolve year after year, and this vintage might be one of the best yet. It brings together grapes sourced from distinct sites across Washington's Columbia Valley and is aged in 100 percent Taransaud French oak for 30 months. The result is a bold, powerful wine. It opens with aromas of roasted coffee beans, black cherries, and vanilla. The mouthfeel is rich with concentrated fruit and seamless tannins, weaving together to add depth.
