In the late 1970's, Bob and Patty Brower set out to fulfill their dream. Originally from the East Coast, they had a passion for wine and admired the French hospitality encountered while traveling in Europe. They saw the potential in Monterey County as a quality wine growing region, and in 1982 began building what is now known as Château Julien Wine Estate.

With a full service Chateau and Cask Room, this wonderful venue has everything to offer a wedding, anniversary, birthday party or corporate offsite event. They have a staff that is capable of giving you the services of a party planner and they offer wine tastings every day in the great hall complete with wood burning fireplace and beautiful views of the vineyards and valley. A French flavor in the heart of the Carmel Valley.

To find out more about their services and see photos of some of their celebrated events, check out their website at www.chateaujulien.com. Be sure and stop in for one of their afternoon tastings or look at their calendar of events as they host many local parties and non-profit fundraiser in their cast cellar which is a nice way to experience a working winery and vineyard in person. Congrats to a first-class winery.
