THE WINES
We have an eclectic selection of wines offering the perfect pairings to the cheese. We have sourced many of them from where the cheeses are produced allowing us to explore the true taste of each terroir. From our own label house wine Chateau le Roc from the Vineyards of Jean-Luc & Frederic Ribes, situated just north of Toulouse to an exceptional Santenay 2009 Clos De Tavennes Prem.Cru or Brunello di Montalcino 2001, San Polino Estate from Tuscany. Our wines are competitively priced and not to be found on all wine lists, so when budget allows we are delighted to arrange tastings that are just that little bit special with a tasting glass paired with each plate allowing you to taste some really exceptional & unique wines.
Costs per head are determined by the style of wines requested by the client.
