Bar Dog, a range of easy-drinking California wines, is excited to announce Bentley, a 7 lb. rescue Griffonshire from Chicago has been named America's Next Top Bar Dog. Following a search of nearly 13,000 entries from across the U.S. and Canada, Bentley will become the newest face of Bar Dog Wine, adorning the Red Wine label set to release in 2024.

Bentley was rescued 5 years ago from Protectors of Animals in Hartford, CT by his Pet Mom Vanessa Szymanski. After spotting him on Petfinder.com, Vanessa fell in love with Bentley and they have been inseparable since. As a fan of Bar Dog Wine, Vanessa had bottles personalized last year with Bentley's photo, which she also serves at her Chicago Brussels Griffon meetups.

"Bar Dog wine would like to congratulate Bentley and Vanessa on winning the title of America's Next Top Bar Dog," explained Jenna Duran, Bar Dog vp-marketing. "Created to bring wine and dog lovers together, we were thrilled by the response and engagement from our loyal customers. We look forward to featuring Bentley on next year's Bar Dog label."

Bar Dog is known for award-winning Cabernet Sauvignon, Pinot Noir and Chardonnay. Additional varietals include Red Blend, Pinot Grigio, Sauvignon Blanc and Sparkling. Bar Dog is available nationally with primary markets California, Michigan, Texas, North Carolina and Illinois.
