Here are the outstanding new releases by Pursued By Bear.

Pursued By Bear

November 16, 2024

It is my pleasure to share the brilliant wines of one of Washington’s most famous actors, Kyle MacLachlan. Originally from Yakima, MacLachlan probably best known for his major role in the hit ‘90s drama, Twin Peaks which also returned to television several years back. MacLachlan this year was in one of the hottest TV series of the year, Fallout. This is a must-see show if you haven’t had the chance to check it out.
For many years now MacLachlan relies on the talented hands of Dan Wampfler to craft his wines. These wines come from some of the choicest spots in the Columbia Valley. Dan and his wife Amy crafted what I consider to be a 100 point wine earlier in the year from the challenging 2020 vintage, their ‘Skysill’ Cabernet Sauvignon. Dan’s wines are big and bold with serious texture. I adored the 2021Pursued By Bear Cabernet Sauvignon (OB, 94) which is generous and dense and has some seriously good aging potential. This one is everything you want in Columbia Valley Syrah.

2023 Pursued By Bear ‘Twin Bear’ Chardonnay- The 2023 ‘Twin Bear’ is sourced from the Yakima Valley and was stored in mainly neutral oak before bottling. It is medium-bodied and delicious, showing off baked apple, honeydew melon and saline drenched Challah bread flavors. A delight to savor now, enjoy over the next six plus years. Drink 2024-2031- 92

2021 Pursued By Bear Cabernet Sauvignon- A generous and outstanding effort from this warm vintage, the 2021 Pursued By Bear Cabernet Sauvignon mainly comes from the Les Collines Vineyard in the Walla Walla Valley as well as the Dionysus and Sagemoor vineyards in the White Bluffs AVA. Right away this delivers cocoa powder and sandalwood on the nose alongside shades of dark currants and Asian spices. The palate is rich, polished and seamless with each sip, greeting you with a deep core of black fruits, alongside chocolate cake notes. This is awesome stuff to consume over the next ten plus years. Drink 2024-2038- 94
