Plan before you book
Blue Ridge Wine Tours: the practical details
Staying in Blue Ridge? North Georgia Wine Trips can plan a private winery day with pickup and return for your group. Choose a Blue Ridge-focused outing or a separate nearby wine-region itinerary. We confirm the stops, vehicle and timing around your cabin address and chosen package.
- Cabin pickup
- Send the exact address and any access instructions so the team can check the pickup plan and vehicle fit.
- Choose one region
- Blue Ridge, Ellijay and Blairsville have dedicated routes. We do not combine wineries across those regions in one tour.
- Private group
- Your vehicle and itinerary are private. Winery opening days, group rules and available experiences still apply.
Blue Ridge or a nearby wine region: make the choice first
A Blue Ridge cabin address is a starting point, not a promise that every North Georgia winery belongs on the same route. Use the guides below to choose the part of wine country you want to explore, then confirm one dedicated itinerary.
Choose Ellijay as a separate winery day
If Roo Mountain, Chateau Meichtry, Buckley or Engelheim are on your wish list, choose the Ellijay route. The current Ellijay Grand Reserve planner uses Roo Mountain for winery dining. Keep this outing separate from Blue Ridge and Blairsville stops.
Ask about a dedicated Blairsville-area route
Odom Springs, Living Water and Paradise Hills are nearby-region alternatives to research for a different itinerary. They are not automatic add-ons to a Blue Ridge day. Confirm pickup mileage, package coverage and the region before selecting wineries.
Winery details that can change your plan
Visitor policies checked October 1, 2026. Wineries set their own hours and admission rules; confirm current details for your date.
Bear Claw: Blue Ridge
Bear Claw offers a Blue Ridge vineyard visit and currently closes on Tuesdays. Check the official calendar for the date you want rather than assuming every winery opens daily.
Check official visitor informationKerith House: Morganton
Kerith House is open, with a tasting room in Morganton and a separate cafe schedule. Check dining availability when planning a visit; do not treat it as a future opening.
Check official visitor informationCheck the town before building the route
Living Water, Paradise Hills and Redtail are listed in Blairsville by the Blue Ridge tourism directory. Research them as nearby-region alternatives, not automatic stops on a Blue Ridge itinerary.

Make your Blue Ridge cabin pickup easy to plan
Provide the full cabin address and let us know about steep roads, gated access or a limited turning area. The team needs to confirm a practical meeting point and suitable vehicle before your date.
Choose the tour region before committing to a lunch reservation. Moving between mountain towns takes time, so the day works better when tastings and dining stay within the selected route.
Share any mobility needs, group-size changes and your preferred return time in advance. Private transport lets your group travel together, but winery seating and access must still be confirmed.
How your winery day comes together
1. Confirmed cabin or hotel pickup
Meet at the agreed pickup point with the vehicle assigned to your group and access needs.
2. Winery visits in your selected region
Follow the confirmed route, leaving time for the meal included with your package or a separately purchased lunch.
3. Return to your stay
Your driver handles the return journey. Plan any evening reservation around the confirmed tour window.

Frequently Asked Questions
Blue Ridge Wine Tour FAQs
Can you pick us up at a cabin in Blue Ridge?
Cabin pickup can be planned after we review the full address and access details. Tell us about steep roads, gates or limited turning space so the team can confirm the meeting point and vehicle.
Can we mix Blue Ridge, Ellijay and Blairsville wineries?
No. These areas have dedicated routes, and we do not mix their wineries in one tour. Choose the region first, then confirm the itinerary and pickup arrangements.
Is Roo Mountain part of a Blue Ridge winery route?
Roo Mountain is an Ellijay destination. Choose an Ellijay itinerary if it is a priority. It is the required winery-dining stop for the current Ellijay Grand Reserve and Ultimate Celebration planners.
Are food and tastings included in Blue Ridge wine tours?
Inclusions depend on the package and confirmed destinations. Classic covers private transport while you buy food and drinks separately. Signature includes covered tastings and a boxed lunch; Grand Reserve includes premium tastings, winery dining and charcuterie. Confirm coverage for your chosen route.
How far ahead should we reserve?
Ask as soon as your date, lodging and group size are known, especially for a weekend or fall visit. Vehicle and winery availability must be confirmed; requesting a date does not guarantee a reservation.
Will our tour be private at every winery?
Your transportation and itinerary are private to your group. A winery visit does not reserve the whole tasting room or guarantee a private tasting space. Ask about any special seating or experience before booking.
