Wine and cheese

Tuscany cheese with Malvasia Bianca Lunga

All Tuscany pairings
Pecorino Toscano Our pick An aged Pecorino Toscano is firm, fragrant and pronounced in flavour, beside Vin Santo's dried fruit and caramel. The wine is much sweeter than the cheese, which the DOP product sheet calls sweet, never salty. Vin Santo, Tuscany: Le Fonti Vin Santo del Chianti Classico
