Wine and cheese

Cheese with Vernaccia

Every cheese
Pecorino Toscano Our pick A fresco is tender and delicately sweet, so a tannic red would dominate it. Vernaccia's high acidity and almond-bitter finish clear the palate between slices. Vernaccia di San Gimignano, Tuscany: Cesani Clamys Vernaccia di San Gimignano · Cesani Vernaccia di San Gimignano · Panizzi Vernaccia di San Gimignano
Raveggiolo Our pick Raveggiolo is milk-white, soft, buttery and gently sweet, and it keeps only days, so it wants a fresh white. Vernaccia's acidity lifts it without covering it. Vernaccia di San Gimignano, Tuscany: Cesani Clamys Vernaccia di San Gimignano · Cesani Vernaccia di San Gimignano · Panizzi Vernaccia di San Gimignano
Pecorino delle Balze Volterrane Our pick A fresco of 7 to 44 days starts sweet and turns to fresh vegetal, herbal notes. Vernaccia's crisp acidity and lightly bitter finish keep pace with that herbal edge without weighing on the sweetness. Vernaccia di San Gimignano, Tuscany: Cesani Clamys Vernaccia di San Gimignano · Cesani Vernaccia di San Gimignano · Panizzi Vernaccia di San Gimignano
