[ONLINE] Wine & Cheese: Cheddar & Chèvre
A Africa Event on 2021-01-20 18:00:00
In this hybrid class we’ll be tackling two charcuterie board staples: cheddar cheese and chèvre.
From boutique cheese shops to your local grocery store, both of these flavorful cheeses are readily available most everywhere. In this class we’ll explore four wines and how they pair with these classic cheeses. We’ll be sampling one mild cheddar, one aged cheddar, and one classic chèvre.
Due to covid-19 this class will be online only.
The Wines
Villiera Down to Earth White Blend
Stellenbosch, South Africa – .90
Sauvignon Blanc, Sémillon
Beautifully balanced. Complex with hints of passion fruit and gooseberries as well as herbaceous, grassy character.
Château Roc Meynard Bordeaux Blanc
Bordeaux, France – .10
Sauvignon Blanc, Sémillon
This wine’s soft texture belies its ripeness as well as fruitiness. Its rich character is a product of the warm vintage and emphasizes apricot and yellow-plum flavors.
Monmousseau Chinon
Loire, France – .57
Cabernet Franc
A subtle and intense bouquet of red fruit with a note of violets, red fruit follows through on the palate.
Kaapzicht Kaleidoscope
Stellenbosch, South Africa – .97
Cabernet Sauvignon, Pinotage, Cinsaut, Petit Verdot, Merlot & Shiraz
Integrated flavours of black and red berries, tea leaves and spice invite a sip of this easy drinking blend; the gentle structure, with soft tannins supporting a core of sweet berry fruit, adds friendly drinkability; medium bodied with a well-rounded savoury finish.
You may pre-order these wines via Dreadnought Wines at the links above to sip along from home for our online class. Order one, two, three, or all four! All wine orders must be placed a minimum of 48 hours in advance.
