Alveare Winery 2022 Bee & Barrel

Published: June 17, 2025

This Columbia Valley red wine blend includes 60% Merlot, 17% Malbec, 12% Cabernet Franc, 7% Cabernet Sauvignon and 4% Petite Sirah. It presents aromas of cedar, Allspice and green peppercorn that mix with notes of jammy black fruit. On the palate, it delivers rich and opulent flavors alluding to dark berries balanced with finely textured tannins that carry notes of chocolate through a finish balanced with persistent acidity.
