Finocchiona Salami
Soft
Brillat Savarin
very mild with a slight tanginess; triple cream cow’s milk; pairs well with Champagne
(Chardonnay grape) and red wine St. Emilion (Merlot, Cabernet-Franc grape)
Bûche de Chèvre
aged for two months, during which time it develops a hard, edible crust complete with a
bloomy white mold coating; sharp and tangy near the rind, and gets progressively richer and
creamier toward the center; a true delicacy that begs for a warm, crusty French baguette and a glass of robust red wine from neighboring Bordeaux
Humboldt Fog
creamy, light and mildly acidic with a stronger flavor near the rind; aged goat’s milk cheese made by Cypress Grove Chevre of Arcata, CA in Humboldt County
Semi-soft
Bleu des Causses
creamy texture with full flavor; 3 to 6 weeks in the natural caves of Gorges du Tarn of France; pairs well with tanic red wine Cornas (Syrah grape)
Ubriaco Gran Reserva
Italian cow’s milk cheese; aged for 12 months in crushed grape skins of Raboso wine; paste
is pale white with a sharp, fruity well balanced flavor
Mahon Gran Reserva
traditionally the orange rind on Mahon comes from being rubbed in butter, paprika and oil; when a cheese is aged, the taste intensifies and becomes bolder and nuttier; this Mahon is aged in the caves of Menorca for at least a year; it maintains a slightly briny, sharp taste but now becomes hard and granular, on a par with parmesan; enjoy with a cold glass of beer, hazelnuts and dried fruit
Manchego
nutty, sweet and tangy with a firm texture; gold medal artisanal Manchego made from raw milk aged for several months; pairs well with Tempranillo
Boschetto al Tartufo Bianchetto
sweet, savory, tender, mild, woodsy with white truffle shavings; Italian sheep and cow’s milk cheese aged for 4 months
Cantalet
firm and moist with mild but buttery flavor; one of the world’s oldest cheeses, this cow’s milk
cheese is produced in the Auvergne Valley of France
Hard
Abrigo
farmhouse cheese aged for three to five months made from gently pasteurized goat’s milk;
develops a rustic gray mold rind for which the cheese is named Abrigo (translates to “coat”)
Beemster
toothsome but smooth texture; gently pasteurized Gouda aged for 3 years; it is the
only Gouda to receive official appointment to court by the King and Queen of the
Netherlands; pairs well with dry white wines such as Pinot and Chardonnay, and Port and
most dessert wines
Tomme de Chevre Aydius
rich flavor due to the high fat content of the alpine goat’s milk, which results in a sumptuous
and savory cheese; the texture is pliable andwhen tempered, the cheese weeps woundrous
oils, one of many results of mile high free range grazing; this rare goat’s milk cheese is
produced in the Aspe Valley, high in the Pyrenees, on the cusp of the Basque country
