Cheese & Wine matching tutorials - Saturday 19th February


To all Cheese & Wine lovers

I will be presenting a couple of cheese & wine matching tutorials at the 2011 Sydney Royal Wine Show Cellar Tasting, held at Sydney Olympic Park on Saturday 19th February (I presented a couple of classes last year and they were really popular).

The Cellar Tasting is a great event – tickets are $65 and include unlimited tastings of over 2,300 wines and FREE wine judging tutorials, as well as other classes and tutorials – like my cheese & wine matching tutorial, which is an extra $15.

Earlier that week I will be judging at the Sydney Royal Cheese Show, and will select some medal-winning cheeses and pair them up with some great wines from the Macquarie Group Sydney Royal Wine show.

During the cheese & wine matching tutorial I will talk about cheese judging, how to match cheeses & wine and also how best to prepare cheese platters and store you cheese at home etc.

Happy New Year!

A new year - that means 365 more days of cheese eating!

Having survived Christmas (the busiest time of the year for cheese retailers), I am having a short break but will be back with 2 new entries soon: a review of the RAW MILK C2 from Bruny Island, plus a review of Cambray Sheep cheeses from W.A. Stay posted later this month.
