Here's what they're saying about the 2000 Baer Winery Ursa

"With Washington wineries popping up like Spring flowers it has come to the point where we have to be picky about what we carry. So, when we bring in a new Washington winery it means the entire staff was impressed. Such was the case with Baer's first release...Lance has produced a Bordeaux style blend that is lush yet balanced with wonderful aromatics. With only 200 cases produced in this first vintage this won't be around long but we are already looking forward to future vintages."

Pike & Western Wine Shop New Arrivals, April 24, 2003

"Lance Baer is understated when he describes his first wine as 'pretty good'. The 2000 Baer Red 'Ursa'...shows Lance's experience...and his knowledge of fruit sources. We are buying as much as possible to get high on the allocation list. This is a winery to follow."

McCarthy & Schiering VS Buyers' Club Newsletter, May, 2003

"2000 Baer Ursa – From Washington State, I purchased this…and now I am tremendously glad I did. A beautiful wine, soft, elegant, fruity, and complex. Not one for aging, but built for immediate appeal, drink this over the next 2-3 years. An amazing value priced in the mid-$20s."

"Baer Winery - Lance Baer has been the Asst. winemaker over at Delille for quite a few years and is one of the up and coming stars. A true WA garagiste operation in every sense of the word. Regardless, the wines are darn good and the prices SO FAR are unbelievably reasonable compared to just about ANY other upstart in WA. Get on the mailing list while you still can!"
