What Cheese Pairs with This?

[Drguano]

Who will spend $40 to find out? It might go well with a Monte A come the Super Bowl…

A fine vintage for sure. I'd go roquefort.

[Chitmo]

Casu martzu.

My brother, if you are smoking a Monte A on Superbowl Sunday, we will be sharing the vintage ‘98!

To answer the original question, the complimentary cheese to this particular wine should have a strong aggressive opening, leading to a warm and mellow taste on the palate. It should have a flat finish, with a bitter aftertaste. 👿

it is going to have to be a cheese with a very long life.

it will have to be one that is great - i'm sorry, i meant grates. if you think that the Vikings are in the superbowl, let alone winning one any time soon, you will have to suspect brie-lief. of course, i may be being unfair. they may eventually win one. cheddar late than never.

Gary Anderson's review of that release read 'a little left' to the imagination.

Well, as our Italian friends say, they play pretty Gouda lately. They plan their moves Caerphilly and cross the line of fromage. This year’s Vikings are Cheshire average team!

Fromunda cheese?

i wasn't going to touch the gouda - too obvious - but i like the others. especially cheshire.

Best of luck if they make it to the big game. My pitiful Giants certainly won't, that's a no brainer. But beating Patrick Mahomes will be an uphill battle. My humble prediction is the Chiefs will pull off a 3 peat, come February.

Some of your best work Ken. I particularly enjoyed "brie-lief"

Is that at a Costco?  Never heard of that wine before?

Yes. I spotted it when I was stocking up on necessities…

I buy the Kirkland branded booze and wine too.

Back in the day when I drank alcohol we would get the Kirkland Blended Scotch for the office. Similar in profile to Dewars. Not bad but I could tell the difference.

The QPR across their liquor and wine is quite good. Competitive products at most price tiers. Our closest location in Waltham, MA is the 2nd largest in liquor sales for all Costco's in USA. I think Scottsdale, AZ is number one.

Limberger

[BrightonCorgi]

I'd go for harder cheeses with a Cab.

Strong, tart. Why does Limberger always garner such vitriol? It’s a fine cheese. Maybe not for the pedestrian fromage palate…🙄

If I could find it here I would try it. The best cheese I had was in the Pyrenees
