A match made in Walamorinda!

This year for Walnut Creek Uncorked, Lottie’s Creamery teamed up with Local Vines to create a limited-edition flavor that celebrates the best of our local community: Stag Hill Chardonnay Brown Butter Strawberry Swirl.

Made from scratch in Lottie’s Walnut Creek kitchen, this flavor combines rich brown butter ice cream, fresh strawberry swirl, and Chardonnay from a collective of Lamorinda winemakers represented by Local Vines.

It’s more than a new flavor - it’s a collaboration between local makers who share a passion for craftsmanship, creativity, and bringing people together through great food and drink.

Available June 18 at Walnut Creek Uncorked. One night. One special scoop. Tickets available at: https://walnutcreekdowntown.com/events/uncorked/tickets
