Rose Murray Brown’s Red Wine & Cheese Tasting
“When you are matching cheese and wine, remember you need to match the texture and the flavour of the wine and the cheese so that the wine or the cheese does not overpower the other.”
Rose Murray Brown, Official wine expert of the BIG dinner
Rose Murray Brown’s Red Wine & Cheese Tasting
Cheeses
TALEGGIO (North Italy)
ANSTER (made by Jane Stewart in NE Fife, Scotland)
SPENWOOD (made by Anne Wigmore near Reading, Berkshire)
Rose also recommends buying your cheese from an artisan cheesemonger for depth of flavour – which also means you don’t need so much cheese.
