Choosing a wedding location is a decision that cannot be made on the fly. It’s not just a venue for the ceremony; it’s the atmosphere that will surround you and your guests on one of the most important days of your life. That’s why every detail must be impeccably planned, and the place chosen with particular care and attention to detail.
One location we always recommend for couples to consider is Chateau Buera. It combines a truly astonishing, even fairy-tale-like appearance with numerous options that will be beneficial for the couple and impress their guests.
Many lovers from different corners of the world have already fulfilled their dream and married amidst the picturesque landscapes of this winery. We suggest you not miss this chance and get acquainted with this amazing location.
Chateau Buera: A Fairy-Tale Castle and Unique Winery
Upon first seeing Chateau Buera, you get the impression that you are in front of a real fairy-tale castle. The winery’s architecture impresses not only wine connoisseurs but also delights almost all couples looking for a wedding venue in Georgia. It’s hard to imagine that this fantastic palace is not the creation of architects from past centuries, but a modern project by Gogi Maisuradze, created in 2018. The name Maisuradze is associated with the history of the revival of this place and the culture of wine production. For many years, he and his family have continued to develop the chateau, making it better each year.
Chateau Buera is located in the heart of Kakheti, the greatest wine-producing region of Georgia. It is situated on the shores of Lopota Lake, surrounded by vineyards, adding even more charm and allure to the winery.
The chateau is named after the local Georgian grape variety Buero, which grows on the estate. Besides this unique variety, several other types of grapes are cultivated here, allowing the winery to produce not only traditional Georgian wines but also French ones, including Kisi, Mtsvane, Rkatsiteli, Saperavi, Cabernet, Chardonnay, and Merlot.
Chateau Buera is renowned not only for its high-quality wine, which is the fruit of the region’s centuries-old winemaking culture but also for its minimal intervention approach to winemaking. The winery strives to preserve the natural characteristics of the grapes by minimizing the use of chemical additives and mechanical impacts on the fermentation process. This helps maintain the authenticity and uniqueness of the wine’s flavor, passing on Georgia’s heritage and traditions.
Chateau Buera and Lopota Lake Resort & Spa
One of the greatest advantages of Chateau Buera is the fact that it is not just a winery but part of one of the best resort complexes in Georgia, namely Lopota Lake Resort & Spa.
The complex occupies a vast territory and can offer its guests:
- A hotel with 231 rooms.
- Several restaurants with diverse cuisines and modern interiors.
- Two piers for hosting various celebratory events.
- A spa complex offering restorative and wellness procedures.
A whole array of different activities, such as tennis courts, horseback riding, quad tours, a children’s club, etc.
All this allows the couple and their guests to not only enjoy real Georgian wine, vineyards, and the chateau but also extend their stay at Lopota Lake Resort for several days, feeling like they are on vacation at the best five-star hotel.
The Highlight of a Wedding at Chateau Buera
When considering a location for a wedding, you must understand its strengths and weaknesses and strive to get the most vivid and unique impressions. When it comes to organizing a wedding celebration at Buera, two interesting directions stand out:
- Vineyards
- Winery
Each of these can be used as a central element of the celebration or a photo session. However, it is worth considering that vineyards, unlike the chateau, are seasonal and can become the star of your celebration only if you come here at the right time of year.
Besides this, it would be foolish to miss the opportunity to delight yourself and your loved ones with a taste of real Georgian wine, which is produced right before your eyes.
A professional sommelier can add a unique touch to your wedding by organizing a tasting of various wines and providing extensive information about winemaking processes and the history of wine production. This can become an interesting aspect of the celebration and allow you to expand your knowledge in this area. Even if you’re not a connoisseur of world wines, you will certainly appreciate the taste of a quality drink!
Currently, Chateau Buera offers several wine tour options:
- Buera Wine Tour – $30 per person.
- Special Chateau Buera Reserve Tour – $55 per person.
- Dessert Wine Tour at Chateau Buera – $75 per person.
- Amber Wine Tour – $45 per person.
Each tour lasts between 40 to 60 minutes. During this time, you can tour the vineyards, cellars, and part of the production area. You will learn more about Georgian winemaking technology and try four different types of wine with a selection of appetizers.
You can use these wine tours as pre- or post-wedding entertainment. Alternatively, elegantly integrate them into the wedding dinner, making them the highlight of the evening. In such cases, the cost of the tour is discussed individually.
