Halliday Wine Companion 'By the Glass' EP 11: Wine educator Nicole Bilson on Malolactic Fermentation

Today we sit down with wine educator Nicole Bilson to learn about the winemaking technique, malolactic fermentation.

Now, while many of you may not have heard of this technique before - most of you will have tasted the effects of it! Particularly if you're a chardonnay drinker. It's what gives some chardonnays that beautiful rich, creamy, buttery sensation on the palate.

I met Nicole while studying my WSET - she was one of our educators - and you're going to love learning from her. She is absolutely fabulous at what she does.
