About This Experience

Join us for a night at one of the most exclusive valley events, the Annual Vintage Release Party! As the winery owners and vintners of the valley clamor to show off their one-of-a-kind vintages to each other before releasing them to the public, Charlotte Chardonnay hopes the exclusive event will pay tribute to her late father, Charles, who always put community before profit. While sniffing, swirling and sampling the visceral vintages, a scandalous act of murder will occur, leaving the party-goers in search of an uncorked killer!

This immersive murder mystery experience blends wine tasting with revenge best served cold, perfect for a those who love a character-driven mystery.
