Cheese with Domaine Barmes-Buecher wines

Munster Local tradition French Wikipedia and Je Visite Alsace both give this match: Gewurztraminer's aromatic power and full body stand up to the strength of the cheese, and its richness softens the pungent washed rind. Gewurztraminer, Alsace: Barmes Buecher Steingrubler Gewurztraminer
Bargkass Our pick Bargkass is mild and low in salt, tasting of hay and fresh grass. A dry Riesling's acidity lifts the supple, melting paste without covering its gentle summer-pasture flavour. Dry Riesling, Alsace: Barmes Buecher Hengst Riesling
