Match Made In Heaven!
Artisanal Hudson Valley Cheese & Wine Tasting
• When: Saturday & Sunday, May 11th & 12th 12-5 PM
• What: What’s going on in the world of cheesemaking in the Hudson Valley? Explore the answer to that question this weekend at Whitecliff in A Match Made in Heaven.
While the tradition of enjoying wine and cheese together is such a classic that it may have gotten lost in years of grabbing box wine to pair with Kraft cubes, the Whitecliff tasting will look at just how good it can be when you sample unique artisanal wine and cheeses together.
Cheeses will be chosen for sampling specifically to present a broad experience of what’s being made in the Valley today, from hard to soft, from goat, cow and sheep’s milk, to a variety of farm locations including Ulster and Dutchess Counties, up to Columbia and Delaware. You will be able to choose from a broad variety of cheeses, sample and select favorites, explore our recommended wine and cheese pairings with Whitecliff’s great wines, and come up with your own favorite combinations.
• Price: Wine and cheese tastings will start at $15.
• Reservations are NOT required.
