Came here on a Sunday for a day trip from the city; it's about 1.5 hours from Decatur. Upon…read morearrival, parking may seem limited at first, but there's actually plenty available. We parked at the bottom of the venue and had to climb the stairs to the top. If you're lucky, you might catch a ride in the golf cart, but if you're seated in the back, hold on tight because it's a steep ride! We came for the Sunday brunch buffet, which features a different theme each month and never disappoints. If brunch isn't your thing, you can enjoy a wine tasting in the tasting room located below the main dining area. If you're there for brunch, you're also allowed to go back and forth between the tasting room and dining room during your allotted table time. I definitely recommend visiting any time of year; the views alone are worth the trip!

Spending the day at Montaluce Winery and Estates in Dahlonega felt like a total escape to the…read moreItalian countryside without ever leaving Georgia. I had my crew up from Chattanooga in town, and we couldn't have picked a better spot to celebrate. We kicked things off at the main restaurant for brunch, and honestly, the vibes there never miss. I wanted to keep it a bit lighter since I knew we'd be exploring, so I went with a crisp glass of wine, some fresh focaccia, and the Thai Butternut Squash Soup. That soup was incredible. It was perfectly creamy with just the right kick. Everything hit the table so fast, and the service was on point. My friend even surprised me with a lemon drop cupcake, which was the sweetest touch to a chill afternoon on the patio. After we ate, we headed out for a tour and I was honestly shook by how massive this property is. I've been here before, but I had no idea the trails went back that far. The views are unreal and made for the perfect post-brunch stroll. By the time we finished the trail, we'd worked up a second appetite, so we finally hit up Trattoria di Montaluce. I usually skip it because the brunch normally leaves me stuffed, but I'm so glad we went for it this time. That wood-fired Margherita pizza was easily the best I've had in a minute. There's just something about that wood-fired crust that hits differently! This has seriously been the best birthday month ever, and everyone coming into town to celebrate has made it so special. Of course, I couldn't leave without hitting the gift shop for that coconut scrub. If you know, you know. This stuff makes your hands feel like velvet. It's a total staple. I'm already planning my next trip back to see more of the grounds. See you soon, Montaluce! #ashsaidit #MontaluceWinery #DahlonegaWineries #NorthGeorgiaWine #ExploreGeorgia #DahlonegaGA #AtlantaFoodie #BrunchGoals #WoodFiredPizza #GeorgiaWineCountry #VisitDahlonega #BestBrunchGA #YelpElite #HiddenGemsGA

I was floored when the lady told me it was almost $30 for one bottle, I asked if she was sure and she just looked at me. The same bottle cost $18.36 at a package store just 2 miles further down the road. I took a look around the store for a moment just to take some notes and compare, and this store is $8+ more expensive on the same products that a few other package stores around have and sell. Plus they charge you an extra fee if you pay with your debit card. I will never buy any spirits from this store ever again, I don't see how people don't see this, heck Walmart is literally just above them and I'll get beer and wine there and for the harder stuff I'll drive the extra 2 miles to save $10-$15 a bottle.

The pork chop was one of the best I've had in a very long time - full of flavor and oh so tender. It's French-cut, and comes with poached apples from a nearby orchard, Reece's, as well as a butternut squash puree and some brussels sprouts.
