Cheese with Baglio del Cristo di Campobello wines

Caciocavallo Palermitano Our pick A caciocavallo aged towards six months is piquant, with a compact paste that flakes. Nero d'Avola-led reds bring dark fruit, tannin and acidity to carry that sharpness, and the weight to meet a wheel kept long enough to grate. Nero d'Avola-led reds of structure, Sicily: Baglio del Cristo di Campobello Lu Patri
Pecorino Siciliano Our pick Aged Pecorino Siciliano is salty, with heat that builds over 4 to 8 months. Full-bodied Sicilian reds, from native blends to Syrah, Cabernet and Petit Verdot, bring the concentration and tannin to stand up to it. Full-bodied Sicilian reds beyond the classic appellations (blends and international varieties), Sicily: Baglio del Cristo di Campobello Adenzia Rosso
