Experience harvest the way winemakers do!
Join us for one of the most exciting days of the year as we harvest the grapes that will become our 2026 red wines. This isn’t just a winery tour—it’s your chance to step into the vineyard, pick the fruit, stomp the grapes, and celebrate the season alongside our winemaking team.
Whether you’ve always wanted to channel your inner Lucille Ball, capture the ultimate vineyard photo, or simply experience the magic of harvest firsthand, this unforgettable day is for you.
We’ll begin with a sparkling wine toast before heading into the vineyard to harvest grapes straight from the vines. Then it’s time for everyone’s favorite tradition—a lively grape stomp, complete with a porrón for a little extra fun (and plenty of laughs!).
Next, we’ll take you behind the scenes for an exclusive winery tour and barrel tasting. We’ll have a food truck and live music to enjoy after the harvest so stick around and spend the afternoon with us! Keep an eye out to see which band and food truck will be joining us.

Harvest only comes once a year, and there’s no better way to experience it than by becoming part of the process. Come laugh, learn, sip, stomp, and celebrate the season with us at Great Bear Vineyards.
This isn’t just a wine event—it’s a memory you’ll be talking about long after the last grapes have been picked.
