Holiday Butter Making with Award-Winning Cheesemaker Sheana Davis

$295 price includes a bottle of Handwritten AVA Cab and the butter you made!

Join Handwritten Wines and renowned award-winning cheesemaker Sheana Davis of The Epicurean Connection for an exclusive holiday experience that celebrates the artisanal traditions of Napa Valley. This intimate workshop, limited to just 10 guests, brings together Handwritten’s exceptional AVA-specific Cabernet Sauvignons from hillside and mountain vineyards across Napa Valley’s distinct terroirs with the expertise of Sheana Davis, creator of the award-winning Delice de la Vallee cheese and author of “Buttermonger.”

Sheana, recently honored in Paris with induction into the Guild du Fromage and certification as a Fromaggier, will guide you through traditional butter-making techniques as you taste through three carefully selected District Cabernet Sauvignons. Drawing from her 30+ years of culinary expertise and mentorship under M.F.K. Fisher, Sheana will help you craft a custom compound butter specifically designed to complement your chosen wine’s unique terroir characteristics.

This hands-on culinary adventure perfectly embodies both Handwritten’s philosophy of returning to artisanal craftsmanship and The Epicurean Connection’s commitment to locally sourced, sustainable practices. You’ll leave with your selected bottle of AVA Cabernet Sauvignon and the artisan butter you created—perfect for elevating your holiday entertaining with true Wine Country authenticity.
