Wine & Winery

Spring is the perfect time to choose Biltmore wines, especially if you want to savor the “scent-sations” of our handcrafted varietals that complement the fresh and fragrant aromas of the season.

From soft floral notes like those of a vintage perfume to bright hints of fruit and spice, these wonderful wines will take your senses on an aromatic adventure!

Here are our top recommendations for which Biltmore wines you should choose this spring to experience the essence of the season. 

Biltmore® Masterpiece Collection White Wine

Aromatic and refreshing, our 2025 Biltmore Masterpiece Collection White Wine is perfect for spring sipping!

Versatile and food-friendly, our Biltmore® Masterpiece Collection White Wine is a perfect partner for breezy brunches, lunches, and picnics.

The label, featuring original artwork by artist Bryan Koontz of Weaverville, NC, captures the vibrant sunflowers we plant each year to delight you (along with our birds, bees, and butterflies!). 

PAIRING TIP: Savor our Masterpiece Collection White Wine with a wide range of options including fish tacos, prosciutto-wrapped fruit and cheese, baked brie with strawberry jam, and pound cake with fresh berries.

Biltmore Estate® Sauvignon Blanc

Uncork a bottle of this crisp and refreshing white wine and you’ll encounter bright citrus aromas that speak to the return of warmer weather.

PAIRING TIP: With fresh peach flavors and an elegant finish, our Sauvignon Blanc is a perfect partner for light spring and summer fare such as goat cheese, salads, and seafood.

Pack a bottle of Biltmore wine for your next spring picnic–Gewurtztraminer is always a good choice!

Biltmore Estate® Limited Release Gewürztraminer

Highly expressive aromas reminiscent of spring’s lightly-sweet blooms give way to lush flavors of spice, fruit, and floral notes.

If you’ve ever wondered what to pair with spicier foods, this aromatic wine is surprisingly simpatico with dishes that generate a bit of heat.

PAIRING TIP: pick up your favorite Asian and Indian cuisine and uncork a bottle of our Limited Release Gewürtztraminer.

Red wines aren’t just for winter–enjoy sipping them in every season, including spring!

Biltmore Estate® Sangiovese

If you think red wines are too heavy for the season, just breathe in the elegant cherry aromas of our Sangiovese and you’ll imagine you’ve been transported to spring in the Italian countryside!

The taste—full-bodied with ripe berry flavors intertwined with hints of chocolate—will make you glad you thought outside the red-wine-in-winter box.

PAIRING TIP: For spring, serve our Sangiovese with lighter fare inspired by its Italian origins, including mushroom risotto and pasta with red sauce.

Pas de Deux Sec is perfect for pairing with classic desserts or creating sparkling cocktails!

Pas de Deux® Sec

Semi-sweet and bursting with tiny bubbles, this delightfully aromatic sparkling wine features the essence of orange blossom and flavors of wild strawberry and lemon.

It smells and tastes as if we captured a perfect day in spring and bottled it for you to sip and savor.

PAIRING TIP: Serve Pas de Deux Sec with classic desserts like pound cake and fresh strawberries–or enjoy it in sparkling cocktails
