"Set in the foothills of the Great Smoky Mountains, this storied estate is a culinary legend with a huge wine cellar (about 150,000 bottles) and an impressive whisky selection. Guests can choose among three rotating restaurants that showcase produce from the on-site kitchen garden, while dinner at the James Beard–winning Barn is often regarded as the pinnacle experience. The property also programs a calendar of high-profile food-and-wine events—ranging from Burgundy-focused Le Paulée to guest-chef weekends, foraging excursions with truffle-hunting dogs, and signature gatherings that draw national attention." - Corina Quinn
