Life at Chateau Elan

When to go

March - May

North Georgia's spring temperatures keep the bentgrass greens at their firmest and fastest before summer humidity arrives.

The insider's note

Reserve a vineyard tour and barrel tasting with Chief Winemaker Simone Bergese's team — the estate has accumulated over 300 international awards and the production facility is rarely crowded mid-week. Pair the Chateau Course's demanding back nine, with water in play on 10 holes, with a post-round tasting flight rather than the reverse.
