Join the NC Wine Gals on our 3 vineyard Asheville wine tour to NC's mountain wine regions – The Crest of The Blue Ridge near Hendersonville and the Tryon Foothills. Come see what Western NC wine has to offer! Each tour is crafted for you & your group! We hand-selected wine ranging from Grüner Veltliner and Chardonnay to Petite Verdot and Cabernet Sauvignon. In addition to wine, we bring a farm-style charcuterie board & snacks. Expect to learn a lot about wine, pairing food & wine, and the amazing history of NC wine. Thanks & Drink On, The NC Wine Gals
