Great Valley Wine Trail

Great Valley Wine Trail is based in Maynardville, Tennessee, a small town in Union County set against the rolling hills of the Great Appalachian Valley north of Knoxville. The name reflects something bigger than a single winery, pointing to a connected network of wineries and vineyards spread across the region. East Tennessee's valley terrain offers interesting growing conditions for wine grapes, and this trail helps wine lovers discover multiple producers in one trip. It's an ideal starting point for anyone who wants to explore Tennessee's growing wine culture beyond the major tourist corridors.

The wine trail connects visitors to multiple winery locations in the Great Valley region, each offering their own tasting experiences and vineyard tours. Participants can follow a mapped trail route that takes them through the countryside, stopping to taste estate-grown and locally produced wines at each venue. Wine club memberships may be available at individual wineries along the trail, offering ongoing access to new releases from regional producers. The trail format also lends itself to wine education, giving guests a sense of how geography and local growing conditions shape the wines in each glass.

Great Valley Wine Trail serves wine enthusiasts throughout Union County, Tennessee and the surrounding Greater Knoxville region. The trail draws visitors from Knoxville, Maynardville, and outlying communities who want a countryside wine experience close to home. It also attracts out-of-town visitors looking to experience a side of Tennessee wine country that goes beyond the Smoky Mountain tourist zone.
