Wine Spectator's Top 100 2011!

Winemaker Lance Baer founded Baer Winery in
2000, producing his wines in Woodinville, Wash.,
using grapes from Columbia Valley vineyards.
After his death in 2007, his sister Lisa and his father,
Les, took the reins and hired consulting winemaker
Erica Orr.
Baer’s signature wine, Ursa, Latin for “bear,” has
always been impressive for its suppleness and pure
flavors. The 2008, a blend that focuses on Merlot and
Cabernet Franc, is the winery’s best wine yet.
