Event Description

Love Cheese? Love Wine? Love Christmas?

Join us as we get into the festive spirit. We'll show you how to create some amazing seasonal cheese & wine combinations that will make your festive cheeseboard the envy of your friends and family. 

We'll kick things off with a glass of fizz while we explain why cheese and wine are perfect partners. Then you'll find your own favourites as you taste your way through six of the finest local and international cheeses paired with six equally impressive wines. 

Of course it wouldn't be Christmas without including a fine Port paired with a Stilton but the evening will also include a selection from the following carefully-curated seasonal combinations:

  • Champagne with creamy Chaource
  • Franciacorta with Taleggio
  • Alsace Gewurztraminer with Munster cheese on a ginger biscuit base
  • A nutty, oak-aged Chardonnay with Baron Bigod Suffolk Brie
  • A local Norfolk Bacchus with Fielding Cottage Wensum White & salted rice cracker
  • A White Burgundy with traditional Lancashire cheese & Eccles cake 
  • South African Pinotage with Smoked Lincolnshire Poacher
  • Vin Jaune (Jura red wine) with Comté 
  • Iroulegey (Basque red wine) with Ossau-Iraty
  • A mature Cabernet Sauvignon with Barber's 1833 Vintage Reserve Cheddar
  • An Italian Ripasso-style red with Norfolk's Binham Blue
  • A Rich Cream Sherry with Manchego & Membrillo
  • Sauternes with Roquefort

The evening will be complemented by a selection of premium crackers and biscuits for cheese, some sticky Christmas chutney and christmas trimmings.

This wookshop makes a great gift for any foodie and can be purchased as a gift voucher for ONE for £49.50 or a gift voucher for TWO for £99
