Bread & Butter Winemaker Linda Trotta collaborated with her friend Sheana Davis, Buttermonger and Chef at Epicurean Connection, to develop a variety of deliciously simple recipes to pair with our wines. These recipes were thoughtfully crafted with flavors and elements that complement a specific Bread & Butter wine, allowing you to enjoy the wines you know and love in an enhanced yet uncomplicated way.
This Tarragon Butter framed with just a bit of heat from chili flakes creates a wonderful match to our Napa Valley Chardonnay as it enhances to baked apples and sweet citrus notes while the heat playfully balances the silky mouthfeel and acidity.
