Voted Best Winery of the Year by Sacramento Magazine in 2020, 2021 and 2022.
At Great Bear Vineyards they put care, passion and flair into every aspect of their winemaking. They started their vineyard with the vision of producing exquisite wines to share with family and friends and now make small lots available for everyone to enjoy. They limit production to under 1,500 cases (60 barrels) with several of their varietals produced in lots of 100 cases. This allow them to take meticulous care of each wine from the vineyard through to bottle.
Great Bear Vineyard wines have won Silver, Gold and Double Gold at the San Francisco Wine Competition, the USA’s largest and most prestigious wine competition.
They tend the land in harmony with nature, sharing their beautiful vineyard with an abundance of wildflowers, bird and animal life. They have owls and other birds of prey to help keep the natural balance. The homestead, barn and gardens date back to 1860, giving the winery a true sense of place and history.
