when: friday 5/14 @ 6pm est
what: wine and cheese: potentially the world’s greatest gifts to (wo)mankind. on one hand you have an ancient libation that has mesmerized the masses for centuries on end. on the other, a perfectly hedonistic ode to all that is dairy. when the two come together in the right way, it is hard to imagine a better pairing.
anne saxelby runs the best shop in town (in my opinion, the country) and is actually just this week celebrating the 15th anniversary of her eponymous cheese brand: saxelby cheesemongers. she will lead the cheese portion of this tasting and i’ll lead the wine segment.
we will ship a cheese box (one that was selected by anne herself) and your choice of either one wine or two. see below for details.
cheese box (shipping included): $50

st. johnsville 60z round (goat’s milk)
wines (shipping not included):
chidaine (vouvray) argiles sec vdf 2018 $35 + tax
