Dining
One cannot live by wine alone! At least that's our thinking. Delicious wine deserves equally sumptuous foods, so you'll find two exceptional dining options at the winery. You may choose to gather around the open kitchen inside the Bistro and watch our chefs at work, creating fresh dishes for you with food grown right on the estate. Or, if you're in the mood for dining al fresco, ease into one of the outdoor tables at the Arbor Grill and order up savory appetizers, gourmet sandwiches, and entrees made with locally-grown ingredients. Note: Arbor Grill is weather dependent.
Complimentary Seminars
You'll get an even closer encounter with Biltmore Wine with one of these free events, offered daily. Be sure to stop by the Winery early in the day to sign up, since space is limited and the seminars tend to fill up quickly.
