Wine and cheese

Cheese with Gouveio

Every cheese
Queijo Serra da Estrela Our pick Serra da Estrela's paste is buttery, unctuous and only slightly acidulous. A dry Encruzado white has the acidity to cut that cream and enough texture of its own to match the cheese's soft, rich body. Encruzado, dry white, Dão: Quinta dos Roques Reserva Branco
Queijo Terrincho Our pick Young Terrincho is mild and clean, with a slightly unctuous, buttery paste. Mineral, saline Douro whites with racy acidity cut the richness. Dry Douro white, Douro Valley: Wine & Soul Guru
Queijo Serra da Estrela Velho Our pick Velho is strong, lightly peppery and salty. A Reserva, Grande Reserva or oak-aged Encruzado has the depth from age, lees or wood to meet it, and its acidity cuts through the aged fat while the salt sets off the fruit. Reserva, Grande Reserva or barrel-aged Encruzado, Dão: Quinta dos Roques Reserva Branco
Queijo de Cabra Transmontano Our pick The goat's cheese is extra-hard and white, with a clean flavour and a slightly piquant tang. A ten-year white Port is honeyed, nutty and gently oxidative, and that honeyed depth sets off the tang. Aged white Port, Douro Valley: Kopke 10 Year Old White Port
