Everything about this Winery is spot on. The grounds are impeccable with the vineyards surrounding the tasting room and vast entertainment areas. The staff is friendly and knowledgeable about their wines. Loved the Patriot Red!

Saint Paul Mountain Vineyards is a family-owned operation located in the heart of Henderson County's apple country. Nestled on 10 acres of a land grant from England are panoramic views of the Blue Ridge Mountains that the family has enjoyed for generation, and now would like to share with you. The 14 varieties of wine-grape vines grown on the vineyards at elevations of 2,300 and 3,000 feet, along with the cool nights, develop some the best wine-producing grapes in the country. Meticulously growing our fruit allows us to incorporate the unique character of our vineyards into each bottle. Come to a place where you not only enjoy beautiful views with a glass of unforgettable wine, but become part of our family too!

We enjoyed the wine flight very much. Nice setting on a patio overlooking a small vineyard. Servers were very friendly and helpful. We purchased six bottles to take home.

We love visiting the many wineries available within an hours drive of Black Mountain and Lake Lure. We saw the sign for Parker-Binns for the first time while coming back from another winery. We were quite please with our experience. We were fortunate to be served by Karen the owner and learn about the winery. We did the wine flight, and enjoyed all of the wines. We also had the charcuterie board which was good.

Our vineyard and winery rest below the beautiful St. Anna Chapel, which is a part of the Eastern Diocese of the Russian Church Outside of Russia. Visitors to Russian Chapel Hills Winery will perhaps be most delighted at being able to visit an authentic, 17th century stile Russian chapel. It is our heritage. You are welcome to discover a new experience in our estate winery.

What an absolute GEM!! I honestly was not expecting the quality of wines I was fortunate to sample (and of course buy) from the South Creek Vineyards & Winery. The Cabernet Franc was amazing and my favorite red (okay- I liked ALL the reds) and my favorite white was the Voignier. Had I been driving back home rather than flying, I can assure you I would have certainly purchased more, but my little suitcase only allowed for so much. However, I intend on joining the wine club which the very sweet owner pointed out to me was an option! I read their description on the website which stated their wines were modeled after the Bordeaux region in France and I admit I was a bit skeptical. I mean, a NC winery in Nebo compared to Bordeaux? Well, I was definitely and deservedly knocked off my French wine snob pedestal by the quality of their wines! The back patio was lovely, shaded, and roomy. There was a very good musician playing and a great little food truck with an owner from- yes- FRANCE!! He offered cheese and charcuterie platters and I can assure you they were also a quality product. Perfect compliment to the wine and a really lovely way to spend an afternoon. I absolutely loved this place and really cannot wait to go back next time I am in NC. If you cannot tell my the tone of this review I get excited about wine and these small, boutique wineries with wonderful, friendly on-site owners and staff are my absolute favorites-it was just such an unexpected treasure and I am still so happy I went there. I would encourage anyone who is considering a vineyard and wine tasting to go here- you will not be disappointed!

Check in with your friends, neighbors, and others in your community that may need assistance. We look forward to fully serving our community again once everything blows over!

I used to live right up the road and would visit Noble often. They have great activities, such as board games and dart boards to play while enjoying some cider. For the time bring, the inside is closed, but it was great to go back for a visit and place a Togo order. Their prices are great! We got a 64 ounce growler for $12! Can’t beat that. Every single thing I’ve tried has always exceeded my expectations and taste buds! I would highly recommend giving this place a visit if you’re in the Asheville area. The Golden Arrow flagship, my favorite, is light and refreshing and has a hint of ginger. The Spice Merchant has a hint of chai and is my other fave!

Tom, the owner, approach our table and began to explain to Nita her selections and how wine tasting worked. He explained that you had to have at least two drinks to capture the essence of the wine. The first taste was to get your mouth acclimated to the pH levels and acidity of the selection. The second was for the flavor and the taste. Tom checked back with us and we discuss with him our thoughts about the samplings that we tried. Then he began to explain about the hard ciders that they also carry, one was blueberry the other was pineapple. The pineapple hard cider was a hit with us. This location would make a great simple drink stop for a first date, special occasion, or wine time with some friends. The staff were already set up for their painting and wine tasting that began at 6 o’clock Thursday evenings.

I am not a wine connoisseur by any means, but Chris' Pink Moscato wine was the best I have ever had. It was sweet, but not too sweet,and incredibly smooth with not a bit of bitter aftertaste. The dark chocolate kiss palette cleanser was an extra bonus since I am gluten-free. The selection is respectable and the shop is as cute as can be. This is a definite destination if you visit Maggie Valley
