Cheese with Anhydrous Winery wines

Feta Our pick Feta is a salty, crumbly cheese ripened in brine. The high acidity of a dry Santorini Assyrtiko refreshes against the salt and cuts the fat, and the cheese in turn softens the wine's sharp edge. Santorini Assyrtiko, Santorini: Anhydrous Santorini Assyrtiko
Chloro of Santorini Our pick Young chloro is a fresh, soft and mildly salty cheese, often scented with coriander. A dry Santorini Assyrtiko of medium body has the high acidity to keep the creamy paste lively and to rinse the salt between bites. Santorini Assyrtiko, Santorini: Anhydrous Santorini Assyrtiko
San Michali Our pick San Michali is hard, salty and sharp. An oak-aged Cycladic red from Mandilaria, Mavrotragano or Voudomato has high acidity and a tannic frame, and the cheese's salt and fat soften the grip. Oak-aged PGI Cyclades red, Santorini: Anhydrous Cycladic Red
