The 2021 Cider, Wine & Dine Weekend

We are excited to host the annual Cider, Wine & Dine Weekend again in 2021! This series of events features Henderson County wineries and cideries partnering together to create a signature weekend surrounded by all things cider, wine and food! In this action-packed weekend, you will find artisan hard cider, award-winning wines, a variety of food, educational programs, live music, facility tours and more.

Henderson County’s rich history in agriculture and wonderful climate makes the area ideal for the growing of a variety of apples and grapes. Henderson County is home to North Carolina’s newest wine country, the Crest of the Blue Ridge American Viticulture Area. The wineries produce classic wines from European vinifera grapes and French-American hybrid grapes, as well as sweeter wines crafted from grapes native to North Carolina.

The Cider, Wine & Dine Weekend will allow people to spread out and follow CDC and state-mandated guidelines for cleaning, social distancing and limiting crowd size.

You will find a variety of special events at each of the area's wineries and cideries, including Appalachian Ridge Artisan Hard Cider, Bold Rock Hard Cider, Burntshirt Vineyards, Burntshirt Vineyards Tasting Room in Chimney Rock, Marked Tree Vineyard, Point Lookout Vineyards, Saint Paul Mountain Vineyards, Saint Paul Mountain Vineyards Tasting Room in Flat Rock, Sawyer Springs Vineyard and Stone Ashe Vineyard.
