Pursued by Bear Bear Cub Red Blend wine is a curious, yet rather delightful American blend from the sunny valleys of Washington State, crafted by notable actor Kyle MacLachlan. It exhibits an intriguing amalgamation of Cabernet Sauvignon and Syrah, delivering an intoxicating bouquet of black cherries, dried herbs and sweet spices. On tasting, the flavours unfurl beautifully revealing ripe blackberries, plum and earthy tones, balanced masterfully with polished tannins and a decent acidity. This complex, full-bodied red blend shows a sophisticated structure that makes it an enjoyable choice for a range of refined food pairings.

Tasting Notes

The 2019 Bear Cub is a fresh, youthful wine bursting with ripe, sun-kissed summer berries and a hint of baking spice. Richly textured, layers of dark cherry, juicy boysenberry, and roasted coffee dance across a balanced mid-palate. Lively and easy drinking but with enough structure to prove this little fella can go the distance
