Apple Barn Winery Sevierville

The Apple Barn Winery is one of several unique stops on the Rocky Top Wine Trail, a group of 5 wineries in the Great Smoky Mountains. As their name suggests, this winery heavily features sweet, apple flavored wines made with local apples from their orchard.

A visit to this winery is a real pleasure thanks to the peaceful setting it calls home. Nestled on the banks of the West Prong of the Little Pigeon River, the Apple Barn Winery enjoys a beautiful location that's only a short drive from the main Parkway in Pigeon Forge.

As for the wines made here, many of the fruit wines this Smoky Mountain winery features are sweeter. The same can be said for many Smoky Mountain wines, although this winery takes pride in offering a wide variety of flavors to suit different palates. Their most popular handcrafted wines made in small batches boast unique blends of apple flavors. Since the Apple Barn Winery first opened in 1994, they've continued to perfect their wine making process and their own unique twist on vino.

Insider Tip: This winery can be a bit crowded at times because of its location next to the popular Applewood Farmhouse Restaurant in Sevierville. This beloved restaurant, cider mill, and general store is a favorite stop for vacationers who also visit the winery.
