Chateau Elan Winery is a winery in Winder, Georgia, part of a destination resort set across 3,500 acres of vineyard, countryside, and pine forest in the rolling foothills of North Georgia. The winery grew from a small vineyard producing Muscadine wine into a celebrated operation offering tours and tastings, including The Bordeaux Experience, alongside a wine shop and a collection of wine awards. Guests can stay in accommodations that evoke a French country estate, with guest rooms, two- and three-bedroom private villas, and spa suites. Dining, a European-inspired spa with private guest suites, and 45 holes of championship golf - two distinct 18-hole courses and a Par 3 - round out the resort. Weddings, corporate retreats, and other events are hosted in dedicated venues with packages, and the property also maintains golf and tennis clubs.
Chateau Elan was the vision of Donald and Nancy Panoz, entrepreneurs who built a pharmaceutical business before turning to winemaking and applying the same precision to the vineyard. Their legacy continues in the winery and resort as it operates today. The property blends Southern hospitality with European elegance, and its calendar of seasonal events and activities gives guests reasons to return throughout the year.
The winery sits on Tour De France in Winder, Georgia.
