A Perfect Pairing

Posted by on Sep 7, 2010

Each Friday from 4 – 6PM we’re getting together with the Lake Chelan Cheese for our Perfect Pairing Event. Last Friday September 4th, we put our Firá Gewurztraminer, My Derby Wife Merlot, and Kamari Black Label Reserve Malbec to the test. The kids from the Cheese Shop came back at us with stinky Gorgonzola Piccante, pressed Comté, and nutty Emmentaler.

It was such fun to share with locals and tourists alike the bounty of two little, neighboring businesses on the North Shore of Lake Chelan in Manson. The fan fave was the Firá Gewurztraminer and Gorgonzola Piccante. The 3.5% residual in the German-style Gewurz stood up naturally to the blue-flecked, cow’s milk cheese enhancing both and creating the Perfect Pairing for the evening.

Come visit us all at The Blending Room this Friday September 10th from 4 – 6PM, as we search for the ultimate cheese and wine experience.
