Pamper that special person on your list with a decadent wine related gift card. With the Chateau Winery Ritual, guests will start with a wine bath that infuses the body with the anti-oxidant power of grape seeds. Next they will be treated to a Crush Body Scrub which exfoliates the skin with Red wine grape seeds removing dead skin and leaving a grape seed oil on the body to mois­tur­ize and rebuild the skin making it feel like silk. Finally, the De-Vine Mudwrap is the perfect way to regenerate the skin, leaving it revitalized. It involves a combination of crushed grape seeds and French clay which pulls toxins out of the body while moisturizing naturally with the penetrating oil from the seeds, rich in vitamins E and C.

For the friend or family member that would rather drink the wine, the resort is offering a Barrel Club Membership gift card. By purchasing this gift card, you will give someone the opportunity to join the winemaking experience.
