Wine and cheese

Cheese with Traminer

Every cheese
Caciottone di Norcia Our pick The riserva caciottone is fragrant, persistent, with a marked cream aftertaste. A full-bodied noble-rot white with sweetness and high acidity sets sugar against that cream and keeps it from cloying. Orvieto Muffa Nobile and Umbrian noble-rot whites, Umbria: Muffato della Sala
Pecorino di Pienza Our pick A semi-aged Pienza is slightly savoury with herbal notes. A full-bodied, oak-aged Chardonnay blend from Pomino or Toscana IGT has the weight for it, with high acidity to lift the savoury paste. Barrel-fermented Tuscan Chardonnay blends, Tuscany: Caparzo Le Grance
