Whether you come solo, with a friend, or as part of a group, this is the perfect way to treat yourself midweek, discover new favourites, and enjoy an evening of indulgence.
Here are the pairings you can expect:
Epoisses & Sparkling Shiraz – Epoisses is famously pungent and creamy — Sparkling Shiraz, with its bold fruit, spice, and bubbles, is an unexpectedly brilliant foil. It cuts the richness while matching the intensity with plush dark fruit.
Robiola Due Latti & Vermentino – This soft Italian cheese made from cow and sheep milk has lactic tang and a delicate creaminess. Vermentino’s lemony zest, herbal notes, and light body bring freshness without overpowering.
Smoked Scamorza & Orange Wine – The savoury, smoky character of Scamorza pairs well with the tannic grip and dried fruit, tea-like notes of an orange wine. The pairing is earthy, textural, and full of depth.
Tzfatit (Israeli sheep cheese) & Provence Rosé – This semi-firm, slightly briny cheese is vibrant and grassy. A pale, dry rosé from Provence offers crisp acidity, floral aromatics, and light red fruit that elevate Tzfatit’s Mediterranean flavours.
Abbaye de Belloc & Pinot Noir (Red, Burgundy-style) – This smooth, sheep’s milk cheese has caramel and toasted notes that pair beautifully with the red berry, forest floor, and soft tannins of a classic Pinot Noir. It’s elegant and savoury.
Shropshire Blue & Tokaji (Late Harvest or Aszú) – The tangy, spicy blue veining of Shropshire is balanced by Tokaji’s honeyed apricot richness and electric acidity. The wine’s sweetness calms the funk while lifting the flavour complexity.
P’tit Basque & Garnacha – The semi-hard, nutty sheep cheese from the Basque region plays beautifully with a juicy, sun-drenched Garnacha. The red fruit and soft spice echo and enhance the cheese’s buttery, savoury profile.
Enjoy a gourmet evening that’s all about delighting the senses and expanding your taste horizons!
