Sommelier Billie Rolla will lead a group of wine enthusiasts in “Who Put Butter in my Chardonnay?” that includes a lab activity, small group conversation, and of course, wine! From Butter-bomb fanatics to ABC (Anything But Chardonnay) diehards, Chardonnay is the loved and love-to-hate varietal. What most people don’t know is that there are many different styles of Chardonnay from creamy, lee-stirred, oaked styles with super aging power to lean, tart and mineral-driven versions or Brunch-worthy sparklers! Come explore the many different flavors of Chardonnay. We’ll whip up some fun labs to discover how some styles get that signature butter!
