Opening weekend of deer season has its traditions. We have ours.
Corks Over Camo returns to Chateau Grand Traverse with a fresh take on one of our favorite fall weekends—a warm, lively afternoon of exceptional food, estate-grown wine, and time well spent with friends.
This year, the experience centers around a four-course prix fixe menu, thoughtfully paired with Chateau Grand Traverse wines. Settle into the tasting room lounge while Chef Keil takes you from bright, seasonal flavors to French-inspired comfort food and an indulgent finish—all accompanied by wines selected to bring each course to life.
The Four-Course Menu
- Roasted Beet Salad — apples, arugula, candied walnuts, goat cheese & rosé vinaigrette
- Creamy Tomato Soup — served with a mini grilled cheese
- Classic Beef Bourguignonne — the French classic made famous by Julia Child
- Bananas Foster Cheesecake — a decadent finish to the afternoon
And because every good fall tradition deserves a little something to remember it by, each ticket includes a complimentary Corks Over Camo tee—our version of a finisher’s shirt, without the running.
While opening weekend brings plenty of excitement to the woods, we’re bringing a different kind of energy to the tasting room. Gather your friends, trade blaze orange for a glass of wine, and settle in for an afternoon of great food, great wine, and one of our favorite fall traditions at Chateau Grand Traverse.
