Like a mirage rising in the early morning light, Château Élan Winery & Resort lies seemingly suspended in

its own world. More than two decades ago we envisioned these rolling hills and vistas of natural beauty in

north Georgia as the perfect setting for a 16th century style French chateau framed by lush vineyards heavy

with ripening Chardonnay, Riesling, Merlot and Cabernet grapes plus a section of Muscadine’s. Château

Élan embraces a French country flair blended with gracious Southern hospitality. And like the loving care

devoted to growing our bountiful vineyards, we dedicated ourselves to nurturing our vision, seeing it gloriously

thrive and become a 3,500 acre, Four Star, Four Diamond resort and conference destination.

There is a subtle difference of excellence that defines Château Élan from other world-class properties. It

is our uncompromising high standards of guest services and attention to detail we maintain without exception.

It is the splendid choices of amenities that seamlessly blend the fun and enjoyment of a magnificent resort

with our acclaimed conference services staff and superb meeting facilities. It is the raison d’étre why we are

the national flagship property of Château Élan Resorts.

We look forward to the pleasure of your company.

Few places resonate more with a sheer sense of pleasure and challenge than on Château Élan’s 63 holes

of championship golf. Memorable views of undulating fairways, cool lakes, tree lined holes, and putting

surfaces of tightly woven carpets of greenery punctuated with clever sand traps will delight players of every

caliber. A beautiful 1,100 yard, nine hole Par Three Executive Walking Course is an ideal venue for players

who do not have time for a full 18 or for group “night golf” outings.

From customer service to grounds keeping, ensuring our golf courses are always in top condition is

Château Élan’s hallmark. Individual or group lessons as well as golf tournaments for up to 450 persons are

easily arranged. Golf amenities include two clubhouses, two professional golf shops, two restaurants and a

climate-controlled events pavilion. All lend themselves to award presentations, cocktail parties or banquets.

A superb club-like atmosphere combined with Georgia’s top teaching and practice facility including the new

Dave Pelz Scoring Game Golf School elevates the Château Élan golfing experience to glorious heights.

Quiet, romantic, serene. The fragrant aroma of lavender. Indulgent sensory treatments to refresh and

rejuvenate the body, mind and soul. This is the Château Élan Spa. Celebrated as Atlanta’s only spa

destination experience for both women and men, it is a multi functional Spa with 14 themed guest suites

offering visitors a choice of full-day day spa services as well as overnight stays and extended spa vacations.

Here in a French country mansion by a sparkling lake, surrounded by a canopied forest of trees, emerald

green lawns and flowering shrubs is nature at her most beguiling. The Spa’s own chef creates gourmet menus

with healthy, appetizing foods, beautifully prepared and served in the lovely Fleur-de-Lis dining room.

Whether it’s between demanding conference schedules, or for an extended stay, the Spa with a staff of 90

and 35 treatment rooms is a very special environment indeed.

WINERY

(Winery Tours Information on reverse side)

The Winery, located inside a magnificent Château, is designed in the style of a 16th century French royal retreat. Framed by 200 acres of vineyards, the Winery produces more than 20 different vintages, which have been awarded more than 275 national and international awards. Inside the Château are two restaurants, conference facilities, an art gallery, wine market, gift shop, cask room and in the expansive cellars, a full-production winery, the largest producer of premium and varietal wines in Georgia.

WINEMAKINGAt Château Élan, winemaking is art and science, tradition and modern technology. Our winemakers have come from generations of French, German,American, and now Austrailian wine philosophies, blending the best of the old ways with the best of the new. The grapes are picked by hand to ensure that only the finest fruit is chosen. White grapes are pressed as a whole cluster. The juice is then fermented in temperature-controlled stainless steel tanks. Red grapes are de-stemmed and crushed. The skins, pulp and juice are then fermented in stainless steel tanks. Pressing of the red wine occurs after fermentation. Wines are aged in a variety of French and American oak barrels. The Château also houses the bottling, labeling and distribution of the wines.

VINEYARDSThe vineyards are planted with Vitis Vinifera varieties, French-American hybrids, and native Southern American grapes. The grape varieties include Chardonnay, Riesling, Cabernet, Sau vignon, Merlot, Cabernet Franc, Chambourcin Seyval Blanc, and Muscadine. Due to the humid climate in Georgia, Château Élan devel-oped innovative methods for premium grape growing, such as keeping the vines high off the ground and further apart allowing for better ventilation. This attention to detail has literally born fruit. The harvest is more abundant each year.

WINE MARKETOpen Monday through Saturday 10 a.m. – 9 p.m. and Sunday 10 a.m. – 8 p.m., the Wine Market sells Château Élan wines along with a unique blend of mer-chandise including: wine related items, tableware, gift & decorative items, gourmet foods, children’s items, clothing, and seasonal items.

WINERY RESTAURANTS• Le Clos - fine dining; reservations are required• Café Élan - bistro-style “sidewalk” café; open daily for lunch and dinner• Paddy’s Pub - authentic Irish pub serving traditional Irish fare

CASK ROOMWhat could be more alluring than an event staged in the Cask Room? Situated in the cool recesses of the Château Élan Winery, your senses are stirred by the rich scent of the Cask Room with its oaken wine barrels. Conducive to planning the most imaginative of events including intimate black tie affairs, festive evenings of classical, jazz or country music, fundraising casino nights, private wine tastings, award presentations, cocktail/buffet receptions, or themed candlelight dinners, all result in the most memorable of experiences.

ART GALLERYFrom watercolor to marble, pencil to papier-mâché, the Art Gallery showcases a constantly changing variety of painting and sculpture for visitors’ enjoyment.
