Bear Creek Winery in Homer, Alaska

Eric and I drove to Bear Creek Road to visit Bear Creek Winery & Lodging.  We last went to wine tastings in Napa Valley and Winters, California in March.







Bears enjoying wine in a
hot tub greet us.







The tasting room is in
a charming building.










Visitors are invited to
"wine a bit."








We taste fruit wines made with
grapes grown elsewhere.

Several of the wines made here include rhubarb, which is grown on the property.  Local berry growers provide berries for other wines.





Our tasting fee was deducted
from our wine purchase.

Eric bought a bottle of















And yes, we picked up
a few souvenirs.




I got a tour of the wine making
facilities.

Wine is made here in small
batches.

Oh, wine tasting... I missed you sooo much.  The wines at Bear Creek Winery are very tasty.  I'm so glad we made came here.
