I haven't had any variety other than the Merlot, but dipped in some good Balsamic vinegar and eaten with a hunk of crusty bread, it's one of the best things I've ever put in my mouth. It's also great with strawberries (or fruit of any kind...cantaloupe was fantastic paired with the cheese).Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15455011518336150451noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3115083762819846316.post-52363982035037091252011-05-08T00:15:59.666-07:002011-05-08T00:15:59.666-07:00I must disagree.

Three artisan raw milk cheeses and bellavitano-merlot. Bellavitano took the blue ribbon hands down. This man from the perigord region has eaten them all, believe me. But he pointed to the Bellavitano with gusto while still chewing.HadleyBalkanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02569577543013628779noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3115083762819846316.post-21350589485173171832010-04-09T07:53:48.611-07:002010-04-09T07:53:48.611-07:00blends are fun, i.e. a wine by D'Arenberg call...blends are fun, i.e. a wine by D'Arenberg called, "Stump Jump" - blend of: grenache, shiraz and mourvedre. well, really any wine. pure can sometimes be a bit overwhelming and can be softened by compliments of other grapes or methods...kind of like people. however, pure bred anything i respect too. nonetheless - i love all cheeses, more unpasteurized, the better. ;)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3115083762819846316.post-31001322940266679982010-03-12T21:58:00.136-08:002010-03-12T21:58:00.136-08:00Nice...nice you say?
