things to savour
GREY OWL
is a wonderful goats milk cheese from Fromagerie Le
Detour in Quebec. Its dark, slate-colored, soft, wrinkly, piquant veg-
etable ash rind elegantly reveals a dense, snow white, tangy interior
that becomes soft and silky closest to the rind. Grey Owl is the perfect
choice to serve as the focal point of your next cheese plate partnered
with the crisp
Seyval Blanc
from Georgian Hills Vineyards.
“3 yr cheddar”
from Black River Cheese Company,
one of Ontario’s oldest cheese makers surviving over
100yrs, (founded in Ontario in 1901), has just the right bite
to create the "apple pie" experience when paired with
Ida Red Frozen to the Core
from Georgian
Hills Vineyards. Tangy, creamy and smooth, 3 yr cheddar
is perfectly aged to accent the wine.
La Sauvagine
an award winning cow's milk
cheese from La Fromagerie Alexis de Portneuf, has a
moist and supple rind that ripens from the outside in.
It has a runny ivory body, fresh butter taste with a hint
of mushrooms, and melts in the mouth. Culminating
with a rustic taste, La Sauvagine enhances the
flavours of
Marechel Foch
from Georgian
Hills Vineyards.
