Quaint little vineyard with a gorgeous view. Enjoyed their selection of wines very much. My wife and I did a sampling selection and received 5 samples of wines (generous pours) a non-gmo brownie, and a complimentary stemless wine glass.

This was our second time visiting on our yearly trip to the mountains from Florida. The place is beautiful, especially the Christmas decorations. We did the wine tasting and had the absolute pleasure of having this fun experience with Annie. She was VERY busy as the place was packed. She managed to engage and amuse us in the limited time she had as she was serving multiple guests at the bar. The wine is fabulous and we brought bottles home with us. The food was very good. We will be back next year and hope that we see Annie again. Merry Christmas!!

Didn't get the full experience due to a private event. Most of the patrons sat outside on a cold, Saturday afternoon. Patio lacked the necessary heaters. Tasting room overshadowed by excessive retail space. Fortunately, we hung by the bar. The five wines I sampled were terrific. Wine by the glass pours were very generous. We came for the wine. 5 stars. Experience 4 stars. Round up to 5.

My significant other and I came here to get their wine sampler and let me tell you, I was deeply impressed. Unlike literally everything else that I have found in Asheville, this place was beyond reasonably priced and offered a quality that I don't think I have experienced from a local winery since I started drinking, long before I knew what quality was. I have recommended this to friends and family when they visit and will continue to do so

There are not enough words to truly express how wonder Marci was. Our wedding day wouldnt have been perfect without her! The planning, communication, and attention to detail is better than I could have ever expected. If youre getting married and are looking for an effortless scenario, Marci and Burntshirt vineyards is your place. I cant say thanks enough

What a great experience we have had planning my son and his future brides wedding at the beautiful Burntshirt Vineyards in Hendersonville. From the initial interest phone call all the way through the specific details of the day, Marci has been a true delight to work with. Her vast knowledge, ease in conversation and get it done mindset, has made our time of planning so enjoyable and truly assured that the big day will go smoothly and beautifully. I highly recommend this great place. You will be extremely glad you chose Burntshirt for your event.

Great vineyard but the tasting room was very crowded! Maybe it will be better once the new restaurant and tasting room is completed in 2022!
