Pursued by Bear ‘Bear Cub’ Red Blend 2020

From a vintage marked by low yields, warm growing conditions, and sufficient hang time to produce wines with intense aromas and concentrated flavors, the 2020 Bear Cub is fruit-forward and youthful, bursting with black fruit and an appealing hint of cedar. Juicy summer berries, black currant, ripe plum and streaks of shaved cocoa are richly expressive on the palate. Smooth and easy drinking with a finish that lasts, this Cub has enough structure to prove it’s no baby.

Blend: 57% Cabernet Sauvignon, 43% Merlot

A rich blackberry and boysenberry aromatic combination is complemented by a wisp of mocha latte. The wines dark chocolate-covered black cherry and vanilla flavors coat the palate in delicious fashion, with modest acidity and velvety tannins providing a plush sipping experience. Try this Cub with a nice bowl of ragu-topped polenta.
