CA-BEAR-NAY Cabernet Sauvignon 2022
When a California grower’s Merlot grapes disappeared from the vine, he put up a camera and discovered the local bears were helping themselves. Luckily, they left the Cabernet Sauvignon behind, and from it came this lush, black-fruited beauty.
We're sorry, this wine is sold out.

Beyond the Label

After years of unbearable puzzling, the California grower behind delicious CA-BEAR-NAY Cabernet Sauvignon finally solved his vineyard mystery. Each growing season, he noticed whole bunches of Merlot disappearing from his vines. He finally put up a security camera and discovered a family of bears eating the grapes. Because the Merlot ripened first, the bears gobbled those grapes all up, leaving the grower only his Cabernet Sauvignon.

When our California expert went hunting for a fabulous Cabernet, she was impressed with the grower’s fruit quality…and even more charmed by the story. Left unoaked to allow its pure fruit flavors to shine, the wine was named CA-BEAR-NAY in honor of those pesky bears. So far, it's won gold medals at top competitions including the San Francisco International Wine Competition.

Look forward to an exuberant, black-fruit core, with ripe tannins and a lush, juicy mouthfeel. A tasty match for barbecue or hearty stews, this is also smooth enough to enjoy on its own.

Order your bottles today, then tell guests the amazing story as you pour. That is, if you can bear to share this luscious Cab.
