Cheeses

Zamorano

Sheep’s milk, made in the province of Zamora, Spain.  This hard cheese which is typically aged about 6 months.  Similar to Manchego but mcuh richer and nuttier. The cheeses are turned often and rubbed with olive oil, giving the cheese its characteristic dark color. This cheese owes its flavor character to the breed of sheep, the "small, scruffy" Churra and the Castilian sheep, predominant in the region, to the cold and humid climate conditions, and to its long aging in cellar

 

Salemville Amish Gorgonzola

Salemville Cheese Cooperative has been making cheese since 1984 in Richfield, Wisconsin. Amish farmers from the community's families contribute their milk to each day's cheese production and are committed to sustainable agriculture. This commitment transcends to the quality of their blue cheese, which is best described as beautifully veined, creamy and rich with a deep, almost smoky flavor.

 

MouCo Black Truffle
Made in Fort Collins…we were allowed to “steal” a few wheels of this new cheese oozing with truffles! A soft and creamy texture with a hint of tartness…will be on the market soon!

 

Sunny Breeze Farm Sunburst                                                                                                                                 

Made in Craig Colorado, this sheep’s milk fresh cheese is tart and flavorful.  We are roasting Poblano chilies and infusing it with fresh herbs.  The heat won’t be too much and the Sauvignon Blanc is a perfect pairing!

 

Wines

Pomelo, Sauvignon Blanc, California 2008

Fun and refreshing! Think pink grapefruit with just a touch of creaminess, crisp acidity.

 

Memo, Montepulciano d’ Abruzzo, Italy, 2007

Montepulciano and Sangiovese varietals, a full bodied, rich and robust wine.  Fruit forward with plenty of tannin which definitely lingers, nicely balanced.

 

Thomas Halby, Cabernet Sauvignon, Napa Valley, 2008

Smooth in texture with ripe black cherry, currant and mushroom flavors with depth, presence and style.  Aged 13 months in French and American oak, 100% Cabernet Sauvignon.

 

Beringer, Moscato, California Collection, 2009

Apricot and honeysuckle aroma with pear notes, nicely balanced, not overly viscous.  Balanced with crisp and clean finish.
