During a recent visit with my folks, we trekked out to Asheville, NC and toured the Biltmore Estate (more on that another time). Post tour, we checked out the Estate's winery, and enjoyed a free tasting of most--but not all--of their reds and whites.
Sparkling and premium wines cost extra. We tried some of those, too.
My favorites out of the bunch:
- Biltmore Sangiovese
- Biltmore Limited Release Tempranilla
- Biltmore Estate Chateau Reserve Methode Champenoise Blanc de Blancs, 2006 North Carolina, Brut
Highly recommended!
We toured the Biltmore last August. With kids in tow, we did not taste at the winery but I was able to sample (and purchase) within the gift shop while the kids were looking at the toys. Thanks for the recommendation; this is a great destination.
