About Currahee Winery – Pigeon Forge

Currahee Vineyards began in Georgia when owner Marvin Dunson began turning his family’s former apple orchard into a vineyard. The first wine was Sweet Cheryl, a sweet red Muscadine wine created in memory of Marvin’s wife. The winery has since expanded its portfolio to more than 17 wines.

The Pigeon Forge location brings that family-owned winery experience into a convenient tasting-room setting. The tasting room is part of The Tower Shops at Mountain Mile, making it simple to pair a wine tasting with other stops in the area.

The wine selection includes a mix of Muscadine wines, fruit-forward varieties, semi-dry options, and traditional styles. The winery’s current online selection includes wines such as Midnight, Sunrise, 3 Mile White, Golden Harvest, Currahee Red, Sunset, and Ole Blue, although availability can change.

Why Guests Love It

• A relaxed addition to a Pigeon Forge day: The Teaster Lane location makes it convenient to combine with other stops around the Mountain Mile.
• Family-owned story: Currahee’s wines grew from a family farm and vineyard in Georgia, giving the brand a more personal story than a large commercial winery.
• A variety of wine styles: The portfolio includes Muscadine wines alongside reds, whites, semi-dry selections, and fruit-inspired wines.
• Convenient for couples and adult groups: A tasting room can make a nice slower-paced break during a busy Pigeon Forge itinerary.
• Easy to pair with other plans: Its location on Teaster Lane puts it near several other Pigeon Forge activities, making it practical to add without dedicating an entire afternoon to the stop.

Insider Tips

Check the hours before heading out. Current third-party listings show the Pigeon Forge tasting room open daily from 11 AM to 8 PM. Because the winery’s official website primarily lists hours for its Georgia vineyard, it’s worth confirming the Pigeon Forge schedule before visiting.

Think of it as part of a larger outing. The tasting room is at The Tower Shops at Mountain Mile, so it works well as one stop within a Pigeon Forge day rather than a standalone destination.

Wine selection can change. Currahee’s online portfolio shows that some wines and slushy mixes may be in stock while others are unavailable, so don’t plan an itinerary around one particular bottle without checking first.

Remember that tastings are for adults. If you’re traveling with a larger family group, this is best treated as an adult-focused stop while the rest of the day’s activities are planned around the whole group.
