Wine & Food

Discover How Wine is Made

Enjoy a guided visit through the historic Winery in Antler Hill Village. Designed by the architect for Biltmore House, Richard Morris Hunt, the Winery was originally a dairy barn. Notice the unique architecture while you get a bird’s eye view of our working winery and stroll through our cellars at your leisure.

Ready for a Taste?

Drop into our spacious tasting room and let a friendly wine host take you through a complimentary tasting of Biltmore Wines, from floral whites to robust reds. Non–alcoholic grape juice is available, too. See a complete list of Biltmore Wines.

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:

Relax and “Re-wine” at our Wine Bar

Join us at the Wine Bar in the Winery after your complimentary wine tasting and continue the experience with a glass or bottle of your new favorite. Our nearby market area offers gourmet foods to pair with your wine selections—we’ll provide the plates, utensils, and napkins.

You may also enjoy a Premium Wine Tasting at the Wine Bar. Discover the pleasures of our finest reserve and sparkling wines for a nominal cost. Biltmore Wine Club Members receive a complimentary premium tasting for up to four guests.
