Bravium Anderson Valley Pinot Noir + Point Reyes Toma: Creamy and buttery with a hint of grassiness, this rich, versatile cheese is even better with this food-friendly wine boasting ripe fruit notes and an underlying acidity.
Bravium Russian River Chardonnay + Sierra Nevada Organic Raw Milk Cheddar: With similar fruity flavors and hints of Honeycrisp apple, both the cheddar and chardonnay have a lingering finish and enough acidity to encourage another bite.
Château Laribotte Sauternes + Point Reyes Original Blue: Start or end your evening with this classic pairing—the sweetness of the late-harvest wine is the perfect balance for the bold flavors and salty tang in the blue cheese.
Cuvée Jean-Louis Sparking Brut Rosé + Marin French Triple Crème Brie: The creamy butter and earthy mushroom flavors of this cheese beautifully contrast the delicate red berry fruits, subtle sweetness and fine bubbles in this easy-quaffing wine.
