Kaya Vineyard & Winery - Dahlonega Resort and Vineyard

Dahlonega Resort and Vineyard brings Kaya Vineyard & Winery wines to a porch-and-mountain setting at 400 Blueberry Hill in Dahlonega, Georgia. The resort is Kaya’s sister property, one mile from the main winery—not the ridge-top tasting room on Town Creek Road. Its particular draw is a glass of wine on the porch, with Blue Ridge foothill views and tuned wind chimes providing the soundtrack.

Kaya’s wine range stretches from stainless-steel Chardonnay and barrel-aged Viognier to Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, and blended reds. Trifecta combines Cabernet Sauvignon, Malbec, and Merlot, while the traditional-method sparkling wine uses estate-grown Chardonnay and develops its bubbles through fermentation in the bottle. The resort’s restaurant adds breakfast, lunch, and dinner to the reasons for stopping here rather than making the visit solely about a tasting.

Wine-tasting visits center on the weekend: the resort’s tasting room opens Friday and Saturday from late morning into the evening, with an earlier Sunday schedule ending midafternoon. For travelers choosing between Kaya locations, this one makes the strongest case for pairing wine with a meal and some unhurried porch time.
