    Nicasio Valley Reserve
    Nicasio Reserve is a classic Swiss-Italian Alpine style cheese produced in California. Made using 100% organic cow’s milk, this firm cheese is aged for at least three months to develop a fruity aroma and dense, smooth paste with eyes throughout the paste. The flavors are rich with notes of hazelnuts and grass. This cheese has won a gold medal at the California State Fair

    Prairie Breeze Cheddar
    Prairie Breeze is characterized as a hybrid between cheddar and the Alpine-style of Emmenthal cheeses. It’s this interplay on the palate that keeps you reaching for “just one more” taste of this unique cheese. Milton Creamery, nestled in the rural countryside of Southeast Iowa, is where the Musser’s find joy and fulfillment in handcrafting artisan cheeses

            Port
            With a winemaking heritage dating back to 1715, and perfectly situated vineyards, Quinta do Noval’s reputation partly lies in the fact that most of their wines are vinified from estate-grown grapes.

            The 2011 Late Bottled Vintage Port hails from a single vintage but spends four to six years in barrel before bottling, giving it a mellower edge. Rich and intense with a sleek, firm tannic structure, the nose and palate are saturated with velvety cherry and blackberry fruit and tinged with warm, peppery spice. A sumptuous accompaniment to rich chocolate desserts, a range of cheese or the perfect post dinner treat.
