Cheese with Bodegas Luis Canas wines

Queso Camerano Our pick Curado Camerano, ripened at least 75 days, is hard, with a brown-green mould rind and a salty, slightly bitter finish. A Tempranillo-led Reserva, aged a year or more in oak, brings fruit that softens the bitterness, while the cheese's salt tames the tannin. Rioja Reserva (Tempranillo-led), Rioja: Luis Canas Reserva de Familia
