Description
Port is the world's greatest fortified wine, produced in the valley of the Duoro River, East of Oporto in Northern Portugal. Port falls into two broad categories: ruby ports, characterized by intense, red fruit and berry flavors; and tawny ports, distinguished by their mellow, nutty, butterscotch and caramel essences. We have selected four cheeses that will complement both types. Fourme D'Ambert: Cave-aged for a minimum of two months, Fourme d'Ambert is made from raw cow's milk and has a tremendous, creamy, full-bodied flavor. Imported from France. (7.5 oz) Royal Blue Stilton: Long known as "The King of Cheeses", it is one a handful of British cheeses granted the status of a "protected designation origin" (PDO) by the European Commission. Crumbly, intense, and slightly funky. (7.5 oz) Wexford Mature Cheddar: This Irish Cheddar from Wexford brings together the finest milk along with expert aging techniques. The company's heritage of cheese making and its time tested recipe produces a cheddar of unmistakable quality and character. (7.5 oz) Agour Ossau-Iraty: A slightly oily texture gives way to a creamy, buttery quality in the mouth, with hints of herbs and fruit.(7.5 oz) Port not included.Please note that any item temporarily out of stock will be substituted with a similar item of equal or greater value.
