Cheese with Corte Sant'Alda wines
Monte Veronese
Our pick Old d'allevo is the sharpest, most peppery Monte Veronese, a cheese for the end of a meal. Amarone, dry and full-bodied from dried grapes and long ageing, has the weight and alcohol to stand up to it. Serve a small piece.
Amarone della Valpolicella, Valpolicella: Corte Sant'Alda Amarone della Valpolicella Mithas
Grana Padano
Our pick Grana Padano aged past a year is granular, savoury and salty. A dry Valpolicella Superiore has more body than a young Valpolicella and the acidity to cut the cheese's fat, while the salt in the paste brings the wine's fruit forward.
