I absolutely love the tour and tastings here. This is truly my favorite winery because of the staff, wine, and all the deal that they offer. The tours are extremely informative. You learn all about the winery and see where they make the wine. The tour guide is always very knowledgeable and pleasant. The tasting is also filled with great information fun and definitely delicious wine. I like that you can go on a tasting every season and try different wines than prio tastings. There are always seasonal offerings. The Deluxe Tasting gives you the most. There are these delicious crackers and a dip made in house. If you enjoy the dip abd crackers you can always buy some to take home as well. The tasting has 10 different wines with a mix of sweet, dry and semi dry or sweet. You are also able to take your glass with you after the tasting and receive 1 glass of wine from the bar when it is over. Inside of Duplin there is housemade jams, jellies, dips and fudge that you can taste and purchase. There are many different items through the store for purchase and of course bottles of wine. They have a wine club that you can join as well. I haven't been to the restaurant or the theater dinner as of yet but it's definitely on my To Do list. If you are nearby or within a couple hours of Duplin and enjoy wine it is worth the drive. read more

Love Duplin! We were introduced to Duplin Winery about 5 years ago and fell in love with it. It is a tradition for us to go every year when we come to North Carolina. Wine tasting is always fun. We usually have lunch at the Bistro afterwards and the head back to the store to gather our yearly supply of wine (we live in Ohio). Very nice part of our vacation and today we will be going to Duplin again. Thank you all so much for a great vacation experience. People are so friendly and willing to help you. My hat is off to you and your great staff. read more

My experience at the winery was a hot mess. I was in their retail store. This lady named Megan or Morgan was screaming at her co-workers. So much negativity and it seems the pandemic is making folks react without southern hospitality . I will not be coming back. read more

Love, love, love. The price for the wine tour was reasonable and you get to try 10 wines. The owner was funny and charismatic. The food at the restaurant was the bomb.com and the service was wonderful. I was given a menu with all the wines I was tasting and there was a section where I could jot down my food pairings. The owner was Nice enough to have the kitchen prepare our food before lunch service was over. We were able to sit outside and enjoy the sunny weather and view. I strongly suggest you buy their dip mix and wines. I will be returning again. read more

Great food and service. Always enjoy eating here. The dining room is so decorative and inviting.

I'm not the best person to be rating this place as I am NOT a fan of sweet wine and whoa, all of their wines are SWEET!! The winery is very cute and they do wine tastings of groups of like 20-30 starting every 30 minutes. The tastings last about 45 minutes and you get to taste about 12 wines. I felt like they spent a lot of time during the tasting trying to get you to join their 'club' and talking about special events at the winery which made me feel a bit like I was trapped at a time share talk. read more

Duplin Winery - wine tasting - Wineries Near Me - Rose Hill, North Carolina

My friend and I were visiting Raleigh, NC for the holidays and I've wanted to check this winery out for a long time. Every time I visit family in the South I make sure I visit Walmart to get my Duplin bottles of wine. My favorite is Muscadine and I love the muscadine grapes when they're in season in the summer time. I finally had a tasting partner and designated driver so off we went. The commute was just over an hour. I was surprised that it was open and then how crowded it was while we visited since it was a holiday weekend. The staff were amazingly friendly and helpful. We started off with the tour of their production facility, which was about a two to three minute drive from the winery. Our tour guide was entertaining and informative. The wine tasting which was complimentary was a lot of fun. They gave our designated driver who really doesn't drink alcohol a complimentary non alcoholic frozen drink that was delicious. This was my first wine tasting where I actually liked multiple wines. For the record, I love sweet wines and most of Duplin wines are sweet. This was my first winery where I also purchased more than one bottle. I really enjoyed the sweet Caroline. We saw customers leaving with several boxes of wine. After the tasting we browsed around the big gift shop and enjoyed all the wine related trinkets available for purchase. Overall, we had a great time and this is a winery you should definitely check out. read more

I love Duplin and their wine. They do free tastings and tours, everyday except Sundays. Everyone who works there is very knowledgeable and friendly (I like Bruce, he's the man!) The winery is great. Very clean and welcoming. I recommend joining the heritage club....shipments of wine every few months, discounts and members only events (like girls night out, trips....) The Bistro also has great food!! read more

We decided to make an entire weekend of our visit. Rented a place on the beach and was in town for the grape stomp. It was a humid and rainy day...I was miserable. It had nothing to do with the event, just the weather. However, even if the weather was ideal, I'm not sure I would've had much fun. It was a lot of standing in one line after the other for something. There wasn't a lot of space to sit out and just enjoy the moment. I doubt we'll be back since it was a 4-hour drive from Charlotte. read more

The Duplin Winery was excellent! We ate at The Bistro Ms. Pearl was so sweet and recommended a glass for me to drink. I had a house salad with the poppyseed muscadine dressing... AMAZING. The bread pudding was delicious. DO THE WINE TASTING. Joshua was so helpful during the wine tasting and in helping select wines. Ended up leaving with an entire case. I absolutely recommend for a day trip or if you are in the area. read more

We always enjoy visiting Duplin Winery in Rose Hill. Karen is an awesome wine bar tender. She is so sweet and down to earth. We did not see her on this visit but hopefully she will be here next time. We always have a nice day when Duplin is involved Great food at the bistro and good times in the store. Love both locations:Rose Hill and Myrtle Beach. read more

I was introduced to duplin wine not too long ago but every single one I've tried, I've liked. So I wanted to try more and visit the winery. They have a restaurant on site but it does close at 3. I missed the restaurant but I'll definitely have to come back to try it! As far as the wine tasting goes, they take you to a wine tasting room, which they had recently renovated their wine tasting area- it had a cool horseshoe shaped bar! You get about 9-10 wine samples which was more than plenty for me. Depending on whether you choose the regular or the deluxe tasting, you get a free glass of wine of your choice from the tasting afterwards. Both tastings, you get a free wine glass. We picked up a few bottles! I think Hatteras Red is still my favorite but Brice's Creek was awesome too! I didn't know this until after but they are on Groupon! read more

It was very nice for our first tripnout to Duplin Winery at Rose Hill. We had been to the Winery in Myrtle Beach for a wine tasting about a couple weeks ago, and wanted to go to the Rose Hill location...it was quite lovely! All of the staff were amazing and so helpful. Tammy in the bakery, and Mr. Bill at the main Bar and the other staff were so friendly and welcoming. We decided to have lunch at the Bistro and were so glad that we did...it was great!! Our server, Tori, was wonderful and gave awesome service - so cheerful and helpful. We started with some of the clam chowder (the soup du joir). It was very creamy and flavorful. We shared the Caesar Bacon Wrap and the Bacon Chedder Burger. The wrap was really good and a very large portion for the price. The burger was also very good and cooked well (medium). For sides, we chose french fries and pasta salad. Both were well seasoned and I must say the pasta salad was one of the best I have tasted. We, unfortunately, did not have room for dessert, but will surely not forget to save room for our next visit. We did try Tammy's sample of Red Velvet Cheesecake and I was quite surprised how good it was, as I am not really a fan of Red Velvet Cake, to be honest. I also must mention that all of the folks (patrons) were so friendly. It is a beautiful atmosphere to be in and is decorated so nicely. Also found out they have other events, so you can check on their website to see what the upcoming events are. Thank you so very much and see you again soon!! :) read more

Since my move to North Carolina five years ago, this has become my most favorite of places. The wines are amazing no matter what kind you prefer - I would bet you will find one you love. Staff is always simply amazing. If you have time, try the tasting experience - even if you have never tried a wine tasting it is so laid back and informative you will be comfortable, safe, and in great hands. Stay for lunch at the Bistro - it is crazy good. Chefs special is always a great choice. They also have an oh so beautiful wedding chapel. Great products provided by outstanding people. Join me as a Heritage Member and get quarterly shipments - you will not be disappointed. Truly awesome all around. read more

Visited on Valentines with my best friend we had the best time here. Jonathan helped us with our tasting he was very entertaining and funny. The wines we tried were all very good my favorite is the Magnolia and Sweet Poppy. We're already talking about going back great place to unwind and relax. read more

Get a lot for your $10 tasting. Cheese crackers and free whole glass at the end of the tasting. They give you enough wine for three to four sips per tasting. The cheese and crackers offered were gourmet and fresh. My husband and I stopped in just to check it out on our way home from a road trip but had such a good experience with the tasting we plan on coming back with friends. The tastings take place in a private bar which was so nice. Miss Susan answered all of our questions and told us some of the coolest facts. She was cracking jokes and filling up glasses as soon as they were empty. Best wine tasting experience we've ever had and we've traveled all over the world. We just received the best customer service from the tasting to the register and enjoyed every wine we tasted. read more

I had my first taste of Duplin wine in 2008 in Raleigh with my boyfriend (now husband) and his family before he deployed to Afghanistan. I only came to NC to visit since I was living in NJ at the time. I never forgot about it and when I moved to NC in 2011 I bought about 7 bottles. I had been wanting to go to this winery since then and finallllly my dream came true. I didn't go with my husband but with my best friend from NJ who tried it at the wine festival in Winston in 2013 when she came to visit me. The tour was really cool and you have to drive about a block and a half to it. The tour guide was very knowledgable and gave us a great back story as to how the winery came to be. Then we drove back to the winery and they had a tasting set up for our group right away which I thought was really cool. You try a flight of their wines from the really sweet muscadine to the drier muscadine wines they offer. they have something for everyone. They have a whole wall of wines where you can get a crate or box to carry your purchases. The winery was decorated beautifully for Christmas and they have a variety of wine related gifts to buy as well as a bistro attached. Loved this place and I will have to go back with my husband! You can also sit outside and enjoy your bottle or bottles of wine! read more

Winery in Eastern North Carolina. They specialize in sweet muscadine grapes and they offer a 5 and 10 taste wine sampler. If you are military or part of their wine membership club, you get an additional glass of wine with pita chips and dip with the tasting. I went here with my wife and mother to let them have some fun tasting wine. If you are looking for bold flavors, realize that most of the Southern United States is suited for growing sweet grapes and not what you would normally find in Europe based on climate. Likewise, the wines are not heavy on tannins and typically a little sweeter than traditional wine. Overall the shop is really nice, the bottles range from $8 to $20 and they have a lot of items for sale. If you are in the area it is worth a visit. If you are a part of the wine club or military the free glass of wine ticket works at the bistro that is attached next to it which is pretty good southern style cooking. read more

Fantastic visit! The winery had 2 wines, Southern Belle and Sweet Rose both delicious as all their wines. The gift shop's offering of wines bags with cute sayings are the perfect gift. See you again soon, Duplin. read more

Oh I hate to give a low rating, the employees we encountered were all great. And there is so little of interest in this part of North Carolina, that it's nice there is anything at all besides rundown shops and tobacco/corn fields. So my rating is merely about the wine. Muscadine is just nasty stuff...yeah, I know, that's my opinion, but if you've been to Napa, WIllamette, OR, WA State, France or Germany...really there is no need to stop in, except to say you have tried it. On the positive side, one bottle was only 8 dollars which my friend and I shared at their restaurant, so it was not a loss. People we're nice, good customer service and they had a guitar player on the patio. If you like Muscadine.. and you are looking for something to do in E. NC, then.this is likely worth a visit. read more

My girlfriend and I were on our way to a wedding and stopped by this vineyard to see what it was about. It took them an hour to set up the tasting and awkwardly sit us down in a big room (it felt like they were trying to sell us a timeshare), an hour to talk about how good their wine is, and then it took them at least another half an hour to get through just 3 wines... After about the 3 hour mark, when we realized we were about to be late to the rehearsal, and couldn't stomach any more of their cough syrup flavored wines, we literally had no choice but to rudely get up in the middle of everyone and walk about in front of all the tables. I discretely apologized to the hostess and left. Bottom line: Mediocre experience. Wines were not great. One or tow of the not-so-sweet wines were drinkable. I would not recommend this place to anyone unless you like wines (on their lower end) that have at least 5% residual sugar or more. read more

I come here every year and buy a case of their wine. Super friendly. Must buy scuppernong and black river red!

I enjoyed my time at Duplin! But the wait for a tasting was a little too long and the wearing of masks was not enforced at all. For a place as busy as this, I wish they would enforce the wearing of masks in the wine cellars while shopping and in the bistro when people are not eating or drinking. Even the staff were maskless. read more

We did the tour then the tasting which I recommend that way you can see how everything is made as learn what the differences are between everything. Kaye did our tour and tasting and was very sweet and extremely knowledgeable. Got some fudge and BBQ sauce while we were there which was excellent. The fudge didn't last the trip home...we ate it on the way! The wine was way too sweet for my pallet but that is merely a personal preference. They offer military discounts as well as have a quarterly wine program that offers discounts to it's members as well as quarterly wine shipments. read more

A very nice winery that has free tours and wine tasting. The people that work there are very knowledgable and really try to make the experience a great one. While there I get the feeling that everyone is family and close knit. By law they can only let you taste so much during the tasting but even then you get enough of a taste to get an idea of what type of wine you like. They also have a 'slushy' type frozen beverage that is awesome. Makes me wish I had a slushy machine at home lol. I would definitely recommend this tour for anyone. Plan on 1-2 hours to really give it time and not feel rushed. At the end of the tour you can have lunch or dinner at their Bistro. The Bistro has good food at a decent price. read more

Great wines and beautiful setting. Gift shop had a lot of great selections. The wine tasting was presented by Dennis. He was very knowledgeable, funny and gave a lot of pairing suggestions with food and cooking options. Very enjoyable. Can't wait to return again. read more

We took the tour and did the tasting, both of which were enjoyable. We were there on a low volume day, so my wife and I ended up following the tour guide in our private vehicle down the road to the production facility for the tour. Still, the tour was cool and informative, though there was little going on in the way of production while we were there. We then had the opportunity to sample several of their varieties back in the tasting room. We ended up taking home a few different kinds. If you're a high volume wine buyer and/or live close enough to attend their events, their club seems like it would be a good deal. Some turn their nose up at the sweetness of Duplin's muscadine wines, and if sweet wine's not your thing, you'd do well to skip all but a few of their offerings. But if you're willing to give it a try and find yourself in the area, it's worth the trip. read more

We went here one Wednesday afternoon. Just a heads up-they have certain times they do the wine tastings. I'm not quite sure when; however, luckily, we arrived at 12:50, and the next one was at 1:15pm. During our wait time, we were able to enjoy the gift shop, and view the recent expansions of the new tasting rooms. The lady who checked us in ended up doing our wine tasting, and she was a hoot! She was such a sweet older lady, and she had such fun stories to tell! We did the $5 tasting, which included several wines, just no cheese samples. I liked the progression of wines. I'm not a huge fan of Duplin's super sweet, popular muscadine wines, and I was very happy that we tried lots of their drier wines as well. There was even a sample of the frozen drinks. After we completed the wine tasting, we ate lunch at the bistro next door. The food was good, but nothing special. I'm very glad we got to try this vineyard. It had been on my list for a while! read more

Am rating the winery not the wine. I am beer drinker, so do not want to say anything about the wine except that it was tasty to me. On the other hand the winery is small town southern with friendly staff, good value. Did the deluxe wine tasting with sips of 10 different wines. Good crackers and cheese dip to go with, then topped off with glass of favorite from the tasting. Able to sit out on porch and enjoy the afternoon. Can't wait to go back. read more

Kaye the wine tasting guru was so wonderful! She took the time to get to know our likes and a little about us. I traveled here with a friend of mine; we are teachers on spring break. She was so knowledgeable and took her time. We didn't intend on buying anything and ended up leaving with an entire case of wine! Prices are very reasonable and everything is tasty. read more

A thoroughly enjoyable experience. Took the tour, then the full 14 variety tasting, and then lunch at the bistro. Would not change anything about the experience. Make sure get there kind of early to be sure you experience everything leisurely as they do start wrapping up around 4:00. Please note; Muscadine wines are mostly sweet so be sure to keep that in mind. I prefer dryer wines but my wife and in - laws love the sweet wines. Regardless I still had an excellent time. Bruce was our guide and host for the tasting and was super! The bistro meal was excellent and reasonable for a winery bistro (we have been to many). I have reviewed that meal separately under the bistro entry. read more

Duplin Winery isn't your typical winery tour that you would expect. Their base is a tasting and retail store, you can also do a tour of where they make the wine as well, which is a short drive down the road. The tour is really cool, you get to see all the machines where they make the wine, as well as how they bottle them as well. The retail store has all of their wines you could possibly want, including many that are not available at the grocery stores. They have their tasting area, then in the room next door they have a shop, and area where you can purchase a glass of wine and enjoy it while you shop, or chill. A fun experience to fans of wine! read more

The first time I tried this wine I became a fan. I live in NJ so every time I travel south I must purchase my Hatteras Red and Carolina Red. My girlfriend and I took a Thelma and Louise road trip just to visit this winery. The tasting was free and the southern hospitality was on point. Everyone was so informative and I now love their Estate wines. The store provided a nice place to shop for other Duplin merchandise. read more
