On November 10, 2026, Gwinnett Extension sponsored a field trip for Gwinnett County Master Gardeners to the Château Elan Winery in Braselton, GA. The field trip included a guided tour of the Château Elan vineyards, where we learned why they cultivate muscadines and how they are grown and maintained, as well as the history from Executive Winemaker & Winery CEO Simone Bergese. We enjoyed a behind-the-scenes tour of their winemaking facility and learned how they produce over 500,000 bottles of wine a year. Related Images:
