best wine tours in asheville: a complete guide

Sep 30
3 min read

Asheville's known for their incredible brewery scene, but it also has an incredible winery and vineyard scene, to match.


With some locations in Asheville proper, and a handful of others within 45 minutes, they are far enough that going with a local transportation company becomes a no-brainer. Windy roads, wine flowing, and with the right tour company, the drive is as much a part of the experience as the wineries.


Below are some highly rated tour and transportation companies that each have their own twist.



 


BEST OPTION FOR A LAID-BACK WINERY TRANSPORTATION SERVICE

This is a more laid-back winery hopping experience compared to an all-inclusive tasting and educational one. Damn Good Transportation is the sister company to Damn Good Beer Bus (brewery tours). We took what worked with our brew bus and applied it to wine tours, as well. The vehicle is loaded with thoughtful touches, polaroids, Bluetooth, heating and cooling, koozies, string lights and much more. We drop you off at each spot and provide a personable driver to help provide fun between stops.
