Cheese Lovers Delight

• James Halliday Winery Rating 4.5 stars
• James Halliday Wine Rating - 92 Points

The perfect after dinner treat or accompaniment to drinks with friends, cheese is one of those moorish foods, ideal for any occasion. For those with a love of brie, tasty, edam and pecorino, this is the ideal gift that will have their mouth watering and their stomach longing for a sliver of Swiss!

Included is a bottle of Hugh Hamilton 2008 'The Rascal' McLaren Vale Shiraz rated 92 points by respected wine critic James Halliday. Hugh Hamilton is a firm believer in the wine and food experience. Either are great. Together they are magic especially in the company of good friends and lively conversation. This wine is the perfect accompaniment to a gorgeous plate of fine cheese. The palate in a nutshell is rich and generous, but with balance. It is spicy, with licks of ripe red fruits �Eblackberries, raspberries and dark cherries. The key here is the judicious blending of the fragrant, lighter-structured wines from sandy soils, with the brooding, dense, tannic components that we get from the heavier soils.

Tasting Tip: Rip into The Rascal with a rare rib eye, a rich Osso Bucco, or some racy ribs. Delightful for a decadent afternoon with a chunk of Cheddar and chocolate. The Rascal is a stylish suitor for all sorts of sumptuous situations, be they sweet or savoury.

The Cheese Room book is a contemporary book about cheese using the author's recipes and anecdotes to introduce us to a world of cheese which is so much more than just facts and figures.
