Nice. Dustin drank this. Likes it. Doesn’t stand out, but very drinkable. Light on oak. — 5 years ago

After having the 2016 Silver Eagle last year, and the 2016 Summa last month (both of which were drinking fantastic) I wanted to take the Bearwallow for a spin.
I ended up having a small glass of this at pop to make sure it was sound, then poured about half out for some peoppe to try before corking and taking the remaining home to consume about an hour and a half later (so it got a decent amount of air).
This is my first experience with the Bearwallow offering, and it came across as somewhat ripe OR Pinot in profile. The fruit certainly isn’t big or in your face…much more restrained. Underripe black cherry and dark plums on the nose, but mostly in the background behind herbs, spice and dark floral notes. On the palate it is rich (as far as AV fruit goes) but there is a lot of earthy/mineral components, as well as black tea. The last glass was a touch more expressive, but with it being Anderson Valley, I'm not sure the fruit ever bulks up. I wonder if this wine is either meant to hold 7-10yrs, or is just meant for those who want a bridge to OR Pinot. — 2 years ago

Apple citrus notes - not grassy - very light acid. Isabel, Mimi bridge dinner — 3 years ago
Just absolutely stunning. A Nebbiolo from Heathcote Australia; Willoughby Bridge Vineyard. Just an hour or so north of Melbourne. Ready to drink right out of the bottle. Opened up wide with blueberry, black berry at full ripeness. Oregano herbal notes. Nice depth and soothing, well integrated tannins. 👍 — 4 years ago

Review of canned version. Definitely needed to breathe for a few minutes but then was a fruity yet dry wine, short finish, light aroma, just really very nice. Paired well with souvlaki. — 2 years ago
