Discovering the wine region of Alaska

America's northernmost wine state: subarctic climate makes Vitis vinifera impossible; four commercial wineries, no AVA (Bear Creek at Homer, pioneer since 2003). Signature fruit wines from local berries — raspberry, blueberry, salmonberry, rhubarb — aromatic and juicy with intense wild-fruit notes and lively boreal acidity. Local honey meads complement. Juice from imported grapes (Merlot, Chardonnay, Riesling) also vinified.
