Cavender Castle

This was back in the late 1980’s before there were wineries in this part of the country.  So they did their research and learned that Dahlonega and the surrounding areas had the perfect soil and weather for growing grapes that could produce fine wines.  So they purchased nine acres of land in the Cavender Creek area just outside of Dahlonega, started theirplantings, and drew up plans for the winery.     But what to build?Soon they thought back to a family vacation to Scotland and a really cool castle the family stayed at.  They pulled out their family photos and decided their winery would be a replica of that castle.  Cavender Castle was born!
