Chalk Hill Chardonnay + Meredith Dairy Marinated Cheese: Marinated in a savory blend of garlic and herbs, the cheese has a richness that plays off of the enchanting notes of toasted hazelnut and vanilla in this California chardonnay.
Domaine Carneros Brut Sparkling Wine + Snowdonia Black Bomber: This mature cheddar boasts a buttery richness and complex flavors that benefit from bubbly. Why go with a conventional pairing like triple crème when this one is so bomb?
Siduri Santa Barbara Pinot Noir + Sartori Black Pepper BellaVitano: The fruitiness of this wine pairs beautifully with the fruity undertones of the cheese, while a light coating of crushed pepper adds perfect balance for the wine’s earthiness.
Elijah Craig Small Batch Bourbon + Emmi Cave-Aged Gruyere: Enjoy a symphony of flavors as notes of roasted hazelnuts and browned butter from the cheese bring out the woody essence and vanilla bean aromas in the bourbon.
