Featured Cheeses to pair with our Wines from Spain
Solé Gran Queso
Modeled in the style of Spanish Manchego, pair this nutty cheese with the balanced acidity of Castaño Monastrell from Yecla for brown buttery richness.
Drunken Goat
From Murcia, Spain and cured for 48-72 hours in red wine, it makes perfect sense to enjoy with more red wine! Highlight the cheese's nutty flavors by serving with the fruity flavors of Castillo de Monséran Garnacha from Cariñena.
Mahón
From the Balearic island of Menorca, this is one of Spain's few cow's milk cheeses. Enjoy its creamy texture with the herbaceous qualities of Maximo Tempranillo from Vino de la Tierra de Castilla for tastes of toffee.
Capricho de Cabra
Heat until just slightly warm and spread on crostini to enjoy this lush cheese made from the high-fat milk of Murciana goats. Its soft creaminess perfectly highlights the grassy notes of Hermanos Lurton Verdejo from Rueda.
Manchego, aged six months
A Spanish classic! Pair this sweet, creamy sheep's milk cheese with another Spanish tradition, Tempranillo, for a taste of two classics. Try Spartico Tempranillo from Utiel-Requena.
Robusto
From Holland comes this aged Gouda-style cheese. Accentuate nutty, caramel flavors with fruit and high tannins in glasses of Cellers Can Blau Cariñena Garnacha Syrah from Monsant or the light oak in Faustino Tempranillo from Rioja.
Harbison
Lush, decadent and sure to become an American classic, this soft-ripened cheese is wrapped in spruce bark. Match its woodsy flavors with the toasted oak notes of Protos Tinto Fino (Tempranillo) from Ribera del Duero.
Mitibleu
Spicy sheep's milk blue cheeses are rare and exciting, and this is no exception! Complement its bold flavors with fruity, fresh Más de Leda Vino Tempranillo from Vino de la Tierra de Castilla y León.
Naked Goat
In this case, naked means raw—aged raw goat's milk cheese, that is. Made in Murcia, Spain, its buttery components nicely complement the orange overtones in Palacios Remondo La Vendimia Garnacha Tempranillo from Rioja.
Morbier
A classic raw-milk mountain cheese from France. Pair its supple texture and luscious creaminess with the flowery, spicy nuances of Castell de Raimat Albariño from Costers del Segre.
P'tit Basque
This sheep's milk cheese comes from the Pyrenees. Highlight its sweetness with the fruity flavors from another high-elevation delight, Monte Oton Garnacha from Campo de Borja.
