A European Valentine’s experience just outside Atlanta includes fragrance blending, winemaking

Nowhere else in Georgia can couples blend custom fragrances, sip on wine created from the vineyards outside their château windows or indulge in romantic spa experiences in a European-inspired atmosphere for Valentine’s Day.

Located just 40 minutes north of Atlanta in Braselton, Ga., Château Élan Winery & Resort is a 16th century style French château, Four Diamond destination that sits on 3,500 acres. 

During Valentine’s weekend couples can choose from a variety of romantic packages at the Inn or Spa. This year, Château Élan is offering couples a sensual package called the Scent of Love.  With the help of a Master Parfumeur, couples can blend a 20ml bottle of their own customized fragrance while enjoying a bottle of Château Élan’s wine.

The newly renovated spa offers couples’ luxurious treatment rooms, featuring two person rain showers, comfortable massage beds and Jacuzzi tubs. There are multiple spa packages designed just for couples.

 The spa also provides an extensive offering of European and specialized treatments, massage and wellness therapies, hydrotherapy, signature anti-oxidant winery treatments, skin care treatments, nail care, sauna, steam room and more.

For the wine loving couples, the Winery at Château Élan produces more than 20 different vintages which have received more than 275 national and international awards.  Grape varieties include Chardonnay, Riesling, Cabernet, Sauvignon, Merlot, Cabernet Franc, Chambourcin Seyval Blanc, and perennial favorite Muscadine.  Located inside the château and designed in the style of a 16th century royal retreat, the winery offers daily tours and winemaking exercises.
