Wine & Winery

Wine lovers take note: Biltmore’s Winery, located on the estate in Asheville, NC, offers a relaxing way to learn more about our handcrafted wines.

Biltmore Winery
The conversion of the dairy barn began in 1983 and our state-of-the-art winery opened in 1985.

Originally designed as the estate’s main dairy barn by Biltmore House architect Richard Morris Hunt, the Winery features unique architectural elements like a stone-walled entrance tunnel that leads from Antler Hill Village to our Tasting Room.

Guests are required to be at least 21 years of age to taste wine. Please be prepared to show your ID. Acceptable forms of identification include:
