Cheese everybody!

I do not yet have a picture to upload (left cable in Italy!) to show the smiling faces, but I can assure we were smiling!!!

Despite the fact that we were actually 13 on the table (major bad luck for Italians), but I realized it only half way through the dinner (so I didn’t panic, and anyway the table was actually set for 14, so it was ok!), the night went actually very well!!!

We tasted 5 cheeses form the San Lorenzo selection:

- Bagoss, matched with Italian Chestnut Honey

- Castelmagno, with Italian Forest Honey

- Bra duro, with Italian Linden Honey

- Parmigiano Reggiano Extra aged 36 months, with Italian Acacia Honey

- Testun al Barolo, by itself, as it’s matured in wine and it impossible to match it!

The wines (as usually a great hit!!!):

Franciacorta d.o.c., brut millesimato 2003

Gavi di Gavi d.o.c.g. 2006

Barbera del Monferrato vivace d.o.c. 2006

Nebbiolo d’Alba d.o.c. 2005

Moscato d’Asti d.o.c.g. 2006

And of course all this wouldn’t be possible without the people that gently came to our night!
