Georgia is home to around 40 wineries, most of which call North Georgia home. But you don't have to trek up north to try Georgia wine. Chateau Elan Winery & Resort in Braselton is only about an hour away from Atlanta.

The resort is the first winery of its kind in the region since Prohibition, and with numerous expansions over the past 30 years, it's now one of the most awarded wineries on the southeast coast, according to their website.

Once a month, the winery hosts a Taste of Georgia event and the last chance to try December's menu is this Sunday, December 29.

The theme for December is “Braselton’s Flavors,” and the menu features cheese from Sweet Grass Diary, olive oil from a local oil farm and fresh baked breads from Braselton Fine Bakery. They will also offer mulled wine and coffee from 1000 Faces.

In 2022, Georgia Power projected its winter peak electricity demand would grow by about 400 megawatts by 2031. Since then, Georgia has experienced a boom of data centers, which require a large load of electricty to run, and Georgia Power's recent forecast shows peak demand growing by 20 times the 400-megawatt estimate from just three years ago.
