Chateau Elan Winery & Resort

Bring holiday magic to life at Chateau Elan, where twinkling lights, cheerful music, and the scent of freshly baked cookies set the stage for a truly memorable family experience. Children are invited to don aprons and join Santa himself for an afternoon of creativity and delight — decorating their own festive cookies while sharing laughter, stories, and a little holiday mischief.
This intimate, hands-on workshop is designed to spark imagination and joy, blending the playfulness of childhood wonder with the timeless elegance of Chateau Elan. As little ones add sprinkles and icing to their creations, parents can capture the moment with photos and enjoy the warmth of the season unfolding all around them.
Every detail, from the beautifully arranged decorating stations to the soft glow of holiday décor, makes this experience as magical as it is meaningful. It’s a celebration of family, tradition, and togetherness — a sweet holiday ritual you’ll look forward to year after year.

A Five-Course Celebration
Experience a five-course New Year’s Eve menu thoughtfully crafted to showcase rich, seasonal flavors. The evening begins with a delicate amuse-bouche, followed by a luxurious Champagne crab bisque accented with cognac and a silky cream espuma. A petite Wagyu filet arrives with espresso butter, garlic spinach, and crispy leeks—an elevated nod to classic steakhouse indulgence.
The menu continues with maple-rubbed sea bass finished with an orange beurre blanc and cherry blossom dashi, offering a bright, elegant contrast. A slow 36-hour smoked and braised beef short rib follows, layered with depth and warmth alongside a tomato jalapeño purée and sweet corn–lime sauce. The experience concludes with a stunning white chocolate cake filled with strawberry-Champagne cream and topped with a pink velvet macaron—the perfect final note to welcome 2026 in style.
