Wine and cheese

Dão cheese with Baga

All Dão pairings
Queijo Serra da Estrela Velho Our pick Velho is strong to slightly strong, lightly peppery and salty, with a persistent aroma. A Touriga Nacional-led Dão red has the structure to hold up beside it, and the salt and aged fat of the cheese take some edge off the wine's grip. Touriga Nacional, structured red, Dão: Quinta da Pellada Pape · Casa de Mouraz Private Selection
Requeijão Serra da Estrela Our pick Fresh requeijão is white, creamy and mild. A dry traditional-method Dão sparkling brings bubbles and acidity that clear the palate between spoonfuls without masking the delicate flavour of the whey curd. Dão traditional-method sparkling, Dão: Casa da Passarella O Fugitivo Espumante Baga
Queijo Serra da Estrela Our pick Serra da Estrela's buttery paste wants a red that lifts it. A medium-bodied Dão red blend, with tannin no higher than medium and acidity to cut through the cream, refreshes the palate without scraping against the cheese. Medium-bodied Dão red blend, Dão: Casa de Mouraz Tinto
