Asheville Wine Tours, a Van in Black Company, has been honored as the #1 wine tour provider in the USA by USA Today’s 10-Best Readers' Choice Awards. This marks the company's fourth time placing in the top 10 and its first time securing the top spot.

I extend my sincere gratitude to everyone who voted for us along with our outstanding staff of engaged professionals, whose efforts made this award possible.”
