Wine and cheese

Tuscany cheese with San Colombano

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: Capezzana Vin Santo di Carmignano Riserva
Pecorino di Pienza Our pick An aged Pienza with its good saltiness against a Vin Santo of caramel and dried fruit: salt and sugar set each other off, and the wine's high acidity keeps the sweetness from cloying. Vin Santo, Tuscany: Capezzana Vin Santo di Carmignano Riserva
