About

Here at Bear Track Winery we employ traditional counter service serving methods. Instead of a dedicated server bringing your wine to the table, guests are required to step up to the counter for service. This method of service is an opportunity for guests and staff alike to learn from each other through conversation and debate. Instead of that one server you will have multiple as well as the opportunity to interact with other guests, opinions are shared and minds are changed through this process and discovering a wine you may not have otherwise considered is a tempting possibility. We will still stop by your table for some one-on-one conversation and we carry your snacks out as well but we find counter service to be the most interactive experience available and we have much to share. This Serving method also allows the guest to control the experience, enjoy your tasting at your pace in an intimate setting with no one hovering over you. It is the guest’s choice how much they would like to interact with the staff and other patrons but we find that it enriches the experience tremendously and look forward to showing Tucson how much fun Counter Service can be. Bear Track Winery is so much more. As Tucson's only winery we hold the distinction of not only providing quality wines, we make them ourselves. That's right, instead of importing wines and buying in bulk, we purchase freshly harvested grapes and make our wines, utilizing over 20 years of combined experience to create full bodied and well balanced wines that are distinctive and unique to the Sonoran Desert. We're not the trendiest place in Tucson, we're a little kitchy and a lot quirky which is OK with us because we believe we have our priorities straight. We make wine and we're good at it, we concentrate on bringing Tucson bold Sonoran blends that are indicative to this region at affordable prices.

History

Bear Track Winery is the brain child of Rick Riddle, retired PGA tour member and wine maker. After opening and successfully running Noisy Water Winery in Ruidoso New Mexico, Rick returned home to Tucson to play a little golf and relax in our beautiful desert landscape. Rick realized he missed making wine more than he thought he would and thus Bear Track Winery was born.
