2020	Pursued by Bear	Syrah ‘Baby Bear’ Columbia Valley	I’ve had this wine ever year since this the first vintage, and this is my favorite vintage so far. Baby’s distilled essence of blackberry aroma joins forces with notes of dried cranberries and fresh-pulled espresso shots. The medium-bodied, balaced Syrah’s flavors run from white pepper and bacon fat to more blackberries drizzled in lemon juice. Editors’ Choice.	Wine Enthusiast	93		2024-06-17
2023	Pursued by Bear	Rose 'Blushing Bear' Columbia Valley	The Blushing Bear is 67% Grenache, 33% Mourvèdre and 100% pretty in pink. The opening act of dried rose petals, peach, blood orange and wet slate is a winning one. Guava and sweet Ruby grapefruit flavors surf a crisp mouthfeel, fueled by a laser beam acidity and a bit of thyme.	Wine Enthusiast	90		2024-06-17
2023	Raza	Minho Branco Espumante Bruto ‘Raza Pet-Nat’	This fizzy wine, just off dry, revels in strawberry aromas. It has a lively mousse and flowery red-fruit flavors. Drink now. Best Buy.	Wine Enthusiast	Best Buy		2024-06-17
2021	Lornano	Chianti Classico	The nose offers aromas of tangerine peel, citrus blossom, cherry and strawberry, before the tang of graphite, pencil shavings and pepper joins. More cherry on the palate before the peppery earthiness returns for balance, with warming acid and firm, taut tannins. Best Buy.	Wine Enthusiast	90		2024-06-17
2022	Giuliano Rosati	Chianti	The intensely earthy, umami nose features aromas of soil, mushrooms, pepper and balsamic, but fruit notes of black cherries and dark berries provide balance while preserving a feeling of depth. The earth and black cherry tones headline the palate, before a bitter, slightly spicy finish. Best Buy.	Wine Enthusiast	Best Buy		2024-06-17
2020	Lornano	Chianti Classico Riserva	A very herbaceous, earthy nose of topsoil, fennel, mint, oregano and tomato leaf gets some sweetness from a handful of wild strawberries. On the palate, cherries underscore that strawberry element, although chalky tannins and lively acid simultaneously lift an enduring, flinty earthiness.	Wine Enthusiast	90		2024-06-17
2023	Raza	Vinho Verde 'Raza'	The wine is dry, light and full of grassy aromas. It has light citrus fruits and a bright, crisp aftertaste. Drinkable now. Best Buy.	Wine Enthusiast	Best Buy		2024-06-17
2021	Dunham	Red Blend 'Trutina' Columbia Valley	Trutina can wreck a diet with its aromas of dark chocolate brownie mix, cassis and a melting beeswax candle. The Merlot-driven blend’s blueberry flavor is pierced by notes of strong coffee and balsa. This wine would be a fine match for bacon burgers and The Black Crowes album of your choice.

2020	Dunham	Cabernet Sauvignon 'XXVI' Columbia Valley	The XXVI is filled to the brim with aromas and flavors of black cherries, dark chocolate, violets, vanilla and cedar. Toward the finish, there’s also a forest floor-like note of dried oak leaves. This is a fuller-bodied wine with a texture as silky as its tannins.	Wine Enthusiast	92		2024-06-17
2022	Dunham	Three Legged Red	The story of an injured dog being rescued by a winemaker will always make the Three Legged Red a sentimental favorite of mine. This latest vintage starts with earthy oregano and duff aromas, followed by notes of blackberry and black tea. Brawny tannins back a rich boysenberry jam flavor that is accented by lemon zest and caraway seeds. Woof. Best Buy.	Wine Enthusiast	91		2024-06-17
