Preparation
Perron cheddar aged in port combines the richness of a well-aged cheese with captivating notes of red fruits and sweet spices from the fortified wine. Its firm texture, well-balanced salinity, and aromatic depth call for a lively yet nuanced pairing. Château de Cartes' sparkling natural rosé, with its light mousse, red fruit aromas, and beautiful acidity, perfectly complements the cheese's presence. The effervescence cleanses the palate, the wine's freshness revives each bite, and the fruity notes echo those of the port. A vibrant and absolutely delicious pairing.
Other possible pairings: brut sparkling wine, Fruity and light red or rosé wine.
