The Ultimate Guide to the Best North Georgia Wineries and Wine Tours

WINE down this weekend with a trip to one of North Georgia’s top wineries. We’re breaking down the wineries in North GA and sharing with you the ones with the most scenic sprawling hills, the most delicious charcuterie boards , and of course, the most flavorful wines! 

The North Georgia Wineries With The Most Delicious Restaurants

For food alongside your glass (or glasses) of wine, Wolf Mountain Vineyards in Dahlonega is an excellent choice. They feature lunch daily (reservations required) and offer a spectacular Sunday brunch, offering a gourmet menu that absolutely competes with top Atlanta chefs. And wow, is there a gorgeous view from the top of the mountain!

Crane Creek Vineyards has an excellent on-site dining option with Paris & Company, an independently owned and operated husband and wife team serving up French flavor in the foothills of the North GA mountains. Something fun they do spring through fall is aperitivo Fridays! They also feature a cute-as-a-button Farmhouse Market that’s perfect for gift shopping. 

Montaluce Winery & Resort is a bit of Tuscany right in the heart of Dahlonega, with the Italian menu and eats to match. Dine at Trattoria di Montaluce, their onsite, upscale Italian eatery that also has a full cocktail bar a fabulous view of their vineyards view. 

The North Georgia Wineries with The Best Views

Tiger Mountain Vineyards is a family-owned winery using Old World methods to craft their wines in the European style. Nestle in at the bottom of their foothills with a glass for a rather gorgeous view of Tiger Mountain. They have events as well, from live music to farmhouse fresh dinners at their Red Barn Cafe that’s open May through November. 

It’s all about the breathtaking, panoramic views at Yonah Mountain Vineyards . Unlike other wineries, they don’t offer much food for sale, lodging, or other frills, but they consistently rate as one of the best experiences because of the beautiful scenery. Their vines are also the source of the wine of a quite a few North GA wineries. Something to add to your bucket list is their yearly Crush Fest, an awesome weekend of live music, wine, and grape stomping over Labor Day Weekend. 

Three Sisters Vineyards is another winery that’s all about the ambiance. They have lovely views of their vineyards across rolling hills, and lovely white wines in particular. There are food trucks occasionally rolling through as well as live music some nights. 

The North Georgia Wineries with Lodging 

Chateau Elan –technically more in the Northern part of Greater Metro Atlanta than truly in North GA–nevertheless has to make our list when talking wine and luxe weekends away.  This resort is where you want to go for a more high-end weekend away experience that’s still just a short drive from ATL. They grow 30 wines in their various vineyards around Georgia, and the hotel is a beautiful, European inspired resort with sumptuous touches. 

Paradise Hills Resort offers a slice of “laid-back luxury” in the Blue Ridge Mountains. They have charming, rustic cabin rentals that are anywhere from one-bedroom to four-bedrooms, and a tasting room featuring their wines that’s open 7 days a week. 

Kaya Vineyard , right next to Kaya Mountain , is excellent for a cozy cottage stay and scenic rolling hills. Book a couple’s weekend getaway, girl’s trip, or Bachelorette party . They also offer wonderful picnic basket lunches filled with charcuterie!

Bent Tree Lodge & Vineyard is another place that will be a spot where you can both sip & stay! Currently a cozy bed & breakfast in Jasper, GA, Bent Tree Lodge is opening up onsite Cairn View Winery . Stay tuned! 

Dahlonega Resort and Vineyard , right near Kaya Vineyards, is another place where you can stay and make a whole weekend trip out of your wine experience. They have rooms, cottages, and modern cabins so you can have whatever kind of stay you’d like. Folks rave about their restaurant in particular, with breakfast, brunch , and dinner offerings. 

Wine Tours to North GA Wineries From Atlanta

No matter where you live in Atlanta, there’s a fabulous biscuit, stack of pancakes, and pitcher of mimosas near you. Here are some of our current favorite brunch spots, sorted alphabetically and by neighborhood!

Here are our top picks for the top 29 romantic restaurants and places in Atlanta, perfect for you and your boo’s next night out on the town.

The secret is out! Here’s where to find Atlanta’s most under-the-radar speakeasies, lounges and exclusive, members-only spaces.

Athens, Georgia is the greatest college town on the planet. The Classic City has everything, but what separates Athens from so many other college towns is its unbelievable food scene. Here are just a few of the finest restaurants in Athens near the UGA campus.

One of the things that makes Atlanta a Great American City is our Black history and culture. And dining at locally-owned, minority-owned businesses is a great (and delicious) way to support Atlanta’s fabric. Here are some of the best Black-owned restaurants in Atlanta!

There’s no better sweet reward for a long day than a heaping, scoop-filled ice cream cone with whatever toppings warm your heart. Since you’ve earned that reward, we listed some of Atlanta’s best ice cream shops – everything from loaded milkshakes to matcha soft serve to small batch wonders to the hippest ice cream chain in the country.

Whether you’re looking for a meal on the bucolic Chattahoochee River or cocktails 10 stories high overlooking all of Atlanta, you’ll be impressed with our list on Atlanta’s top restaurants for breathtaking views. 

Atlanta is a town full of talented chefs and restaurant owners, but some of them are really bringing creativity to a whole new level as well. They’re combining some truly unique flavors to make some rare and unusual dishes that you can’t just find anywhere.

What a wonderful and comprehensive guide to North Georgia’s wine tours! As a wine enthusiast who loves exploring new regions and tastes, I’ve found your post incredibly helpful and informative. The details you’ve provided, from the wineries’ history to their specialities, add a personal touch that makes the prospect of these tours all the more enticing.

Hello, Tony! The wineries of North GA get more popular by the day, and visiting a few on a GA wine tour is a great way to see them safely with your friends. Enjoy!

This is a very informative article, like an all-you-need-to-know guide about tour choices. I have heard that Georgia is one of the oldest wine-producing regions in the world. My wife and I love to travel, but she especially loves the countryside views. I know Georgia is definitely full of natural views where the grapes are grown. What is your suggestion for a getaway that is full of great viewpoints? We love to take pictures with nature and enjoy the countryside life.

Hello! Believe it or not, most of these areas of North Georgia (USA) are relatively newer producers of wine. Many of the wineries are less than ten years old, and almost all are less than 20 years old. There are plenty of wines with an “old world” taste, though, so it’s easy to understand how the area’s wine history might seem longer than it is!

There are lots of fantastic wineries in North GA, which makes it hard to choose a favorite getaway, but easy to find a bunch of great options! For viewpoints of long-range mountain views, consider visiting any of these destinations on a North Georgia Wine Tour: Terra Incognita, Kaya, Wolf Mountain, Living Water Winery, Ott Farms Winery, Creekstone Winery, Crane Creek Winery, and Fainting Goat. 

Alright, alright, alright! I stumbled upon this article about wine tours in North Georgia, and I gotta say, I’m impressed. I never knew that Georgia was producing wines, let alone that they have a whole tour dedicated to it.

First things first, let’s talk about the article itself. Kudos to the author for providing such a detailed guide to wine tours in North Georgia. From the various vineyards and wineries to the different types of tours available, this guide has got it all. It’s clear that the author has done their research and is passionate about wine tours in North Georgia.

As someone who’s never been on a wine tour before, this article really opened my eyes to what I’m missing out on. I mean, who wouldn’t want to spend a day (or two) drinking delicious wine while taking in the stunning scenery of the North Georgia mountains? Sign me up!

But all joking aside, I really do appreciate the author taking the time to write this article. They’ve provided a valuable resource for anyone looking to plan a wine tour in North Georgia. And for those of you who have been on a wine tour before, I’d love to hear your thoughts on the experience. Was it worth it? What was your favorite part?

Overall, I’m really impressed with this article and the information provided. It’s clear that the author has a love for wine and for North Georgia, and they’ve done a great job of sharing that love with their readers. So, thank you to the author for this informative and enjoyable read. I’m definitely adding a wine tour in North Georgia to my bucket list!

Vineyards have already fascinated me since I was asked to work on a project on wine when I was child. Research on vineyards led me to know such beautiful vineyards in Georgia. And your article comes to me at the right time to know about the vineyard tour further.

A private tour of Ellijay Wineries including wind tasting is so much fun I could imagine. 

I am definitely going to make it this time!

Thanks for sharing such a comprehensive information.

lovers of good wine

We are a husband and wife team, lovers of good wine, enjoy entertaining, and ran Wine Tasting Tours in California for 11 years. After moving to Georgia one item on our ‘East Coast To-Do List’ was to seek out local wineries. And lo and behold . . . we found several wineries in a beautiful countryside setting with stunning views, a good varietal of wines and of course, ‘Southern Charm’ in North Georgia. And all of this is only a little over an hour from the Metropolitan Atlanta area!

Our first experience was the annual ‘Georgia Wine Highway’ that provided a ‘peek’ into the many wineries in the area. So, for the next year we did our homework touring the wineries, meeting the wonderful owners (and enjoying wine tasting along the way), and decided to share this wonderful experience with others. From there ‘Pop the Cork Wine Tours’ was born! We are here to bring a ‘new vibe’ with our wine tasting tours!

Don has so much knowledge and passion about Atlanta, he truly is a gem of the city. He told great stories, cracked jokes, sang, and even played harmonica. Pam is a great driver, often maneuvering through traffic and tight spaces, while still giving comments. Her and Don have such great chemistry. I have already recommended this tour to friends who will be visiting, and my advice would be to try and get Don, if possible. As for the tour itself, sights include the Buckhead Mansions, a stop for lunch at Ponce City Market, and most importantly a visit to The King Center, in honor of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. Getting to see Dr. King and Coretta Scott King's crypt, as well as his noble peace prize was worth the price of admission alone. My recommendation would be to get the $49 Groupon and you will not be disappointed. Read more Written February 22, 2024

The Most Underrated Wine Regions You'll Find In The US

T here's Napa Valley with its cabernet sauvignon and chardonnay, the New York Finger Lakes with riesling, and Oregon with its pinot noir. These are American wine regions we know and love. But woven across the land are underrated wine metropolises you may have missed. 

According to the Alcohol and Tobacco Tax and Trade Bureau , currently, the United States has 270 American Viticultural Areas (AVAs). These areas are designated lands in the country recognized for their wine-grape growing potential. It means the areas have ideal climates and soil types for vineyards and have distinct characteristics for high-quality wine. It's a similar principle to the Appellation d'Origine Contrôlée regions of France or Denominazione di Origine Controllata regions of Italy.

California alone is home to 150 AVAs, such as the Russian River Valley AVA , making it the largest winemaking region in the country. That's probably not a surprise considering California's reputation for winemaking. However, that means the rest of the 120 AVAs are scattered throughout the United States in locations you probably wouldn't have ever associated with high-quality winemaking. Guided by the expertise of Henna Bakshi, a certified wine expert with a Level 3 qualification from the Wine & Spirit Education Trust, we've explored this list of AVAs and the variety of vineyards within them to select the most underrated wine regions in the United States. If you're ever passing through Georgia, New Jersey, Arizona, Texas, or Missouri, it's definitely worth it to take a trip to a local winery.

Read more: The Role Of Your Beer Glass Is More Important Than You Think

Just an hour and a half drive north of Atlanta are the Blue Ridge Mountains, home to orchards, vineyards, and waterfalls. The region is an oasis compared to the city, and winemaking is a way of life for locals here. As a state, Georgia has two AVAs: Dahlonega Plateau and Upper Hiwassee Highlands. In fact, most of the vineyards in the Upper Hiwassee Highlands are located in North Carolina. However, because North Carolina has a better reputation for wines, Georgia wineries in the area are sometimes overlooked despite producing many of the same grapes and wines as their North Carolina counterparts. For this reason, the Peach State made our list of under-the-radar wine regions.

Muscadine is Georgia's native grape ( different from the Scuppernong grape ) and is capable of making dry, off-dry, and sweet wine with bruised apple, banana, and citrus flavors. This region also produces other hybrids like traminette (an intensely aromatic and floral white wine), norton (a punchy red wine), and chardonel (which tastes like a zippy chardonnay). The wines pair beautifully with the local cuisine, like shrimp and grits, blueberry pie, and fried catfish.

If you're in Atlanta, book a tour from the city to the vineyards. Many guided bus tours are available that shuttle you through a lineup of vineyards. Cabin rentals with mountain views are available for overnight stays. For first-timers, check out award-winning wines at Yonah Mountain Vineyards , Three Sisters Vineyards , or Montaluce Winery and Restaurant . If you're looking to stay closer to Atlanta, head to Cloudland Vineyards and Winery to experience one of the few vineyards practicing organic farming.

When you visit New Jersey, wine may not be at the top of your mind. But believe it or not, the state is an incredible and budding wine region. There are over 50 wineries growing many varieties of grapes, such as riesling and pinot noir, as well as popular Italian varieties like sangiovese and barbera. French American hybrids and native American vines are also grown here. 

Winemaking is taken seriously in New Jersey. This state has four AVAs: the Outer Coastal Plain, Warren Hills, Central Delaware Valley (shared with eastern Pennsylvania), and the Cape May Peninsula. Currently, New Jersey is gaining popularity for its sparkling wines in particular. According to the Garden State Wine Growers Association , New Jersey was once as renowned as the Champagne region of France prior to Prohibition, and within the last 20 years, local wineries have started embracing these sparkling roots. Vineyards like William Heritage  make quality blanc de noir and blanc de blanc sparkling wines. Hawk Haven Vineyard and Winery makes a brut blanc de blanc and rosé sparkling wine. But if red wines are more your speed,  Amalthea Cellars Winery has plenty of award-winning selections.

Wine in the desert? Believe it! Arizona is a great place for vineyards. The Grand Canyon State's hot and dry climate helps ripen grapes with ease. Moreover, there are very high elevations in Arizona — some vineyards are as high as 5,200 feet above sea level (per the Arizona Wine Growers Association ), making for cool microclimates. A mix of sun and cooler temperatures from the elevation produce an excellent crop of grapes.

Currently, Arizona has three AVAs: Sonoita, Willcox, and the Verde Valley. Winemaking in Arizona dates back to the 1600s, but it only recently started getting some major attention. With more than 100 wineries, the state grows a variety of grapes similar to those grown in Italy, Spain, and southern France, including grenache, syrah, mourvedre, tempranillo, and sangiovese, among others. The distinct climate in Arizona's high elevations is also great for aromatic whites like riesling, roussanne, and viognier.

Wineries like Alcantara Vineyards and Rune Wines offer award-winning wines with sweeping backdrops of the desert. Want to explore several wineries in a day? The Verde Valley Wine Trail has a whole collection worth visiting.

It's no surprise Texas is doing it big. The Lone Star state is home to eight AVAs, located mainly across central and west Texas: Texas Hill Country, Texas High Plains (which is responsible for 80% of the state's wine grape production), Bell Mountain, Fredericksburg in the Texas Hill Country, Escondido Valley, Mesilla Valley, Texas Davis Mountains (with elevations as high as 8,300 feet), and Texoma. It's one of the most exciting wine regions in the country right now, growing from about 20 wineries in the 1980s to more than 450 today, according to Dallas News . That is a huge boom in winemaking, and one worth exploring.

It's hot in Texas, and you might wonder how in the world wine grapes do well here. Mediterranean-style  Spanish grapes and hybrids are grown to tackle the state's heat and humidity. About 70% of the production is red wine. Tempranillo, lomanto, black Spanish, muscadine, mourvèdre, and viognier (among others) are popular varieties, and they all do well in this climate. Try the local red wines the next time you order Texas BBQ; they make for a brilliant match.

To get a taste of the state's vast array of wine, head to the  Texas Wine Collective , located on the 290 Wine Trail in the Texas Hill Country. The collective represents three winemakers: Brennan Vineyards, Lost Oak Winery, and McPherson Cellars. The tasting room is equipped to offer food and wine pairings, Texas cheese pairings, and educational tastings in a gorgeous setting.

We saved the oldest for last. Long before California, Missouri was the wine capital of the country. The very first AVA was established in Missouri more than 40 years ago in 1980. Due to the highly-coveted glacial soil that was found in Missouri at the time — which was ideal for ripening grapes — the Augusta AVA was the first distinction awarded in the United States. Napa Valley followed suit eight months later in California.

Today, Missouri is home to five AVAs in total: Augusta, Ozark Mountain, Hermann (home of the award-winning Stone Hill Winery ), Ozark Highlands, and Loess Hills District. And Missouri makes a whole lot of wine, selling 1.6 million gallons of wine every year (via Food & Wine ).

Much like Georgia, Missouri is also known for growing hybrid grapes like catawba, chambourcin, chardonel, concord, norton, seyval blanc, and more. With more than 125 wineries to explore, the state has eight wine trails, including the Hermann, Kansas City, and the Lake of the Ozarks trails. For the history buffs, you must check out Augusta's oldest winery,  Mount Pleasant Estates , which was established in 1859.

It's often said that wine is made in the most beautiful places on Earth, and that includes American vineyards. There are many underrated wine regions to explore across the country. As you travel, look into the local wine scene and head to the vineyards. You may be pleasantly surprised to find a hidden nook of beauty, and the perfect glass of wine to unwind with.
