The Wine Club enjoyed another entertaining evening this month. The theme this time was pairing cheeses with different wines and with all of the Committee members introducing the wines. All nine of the cheeses were purchased at Greys in Pangbourne and particular favourites were the Cerne Abbas which was paired with a Chardonnay (Alamos Catena, Mendoza ) and the Delice des Cremier (a soft cheese paired with a Pinot noir). The Stinking Bishop cheese had very mixed reviews although the dessert wine (Calcaia Muffa Nobile Dolce Orvieto ) with which it was paired was well received. The tawny port which ended the evening seemed a particular hit. On 22 June we will have the annual BBQ and, as places are limited, please book early to avoid disappointment.
