A Simple Wine & Cheese Pairing on Maui!

Wine & Cheese Tasting at Stuey's Wine Bar or @ Home!

One of the most fabulous features at Guava Gouda & Caviar in Wailea is the fact that we have Stuey's Wine Tasting Bar right next door;  allowing for sampling of the most gourmet products available on Maui.  Pictured above is a very cool cheese board made by Boska.  It is approximately 10 inches x 5 inches, however, it is available in various other sizes.  We love the simplicity of the natural look which works in casual and elegant environments both in and outdoors.  Sometimes it's just two or three simple ingredients that when combined not only look amazing but satisfy even the most discriminately palate.  Carol Shelton makes amazing wines including a house favorite loved by all, the "Wild Thing" Old Vine Zinfandel from Mendocino County.  We've paired it with another house favorite, "La Tur."  La Tur, from Italy is a very complex cheese that offers layers of earth, mushroom, cream and woodsy notes.  Made from the milk of all three animal milks, cow, goat and sheep, it's no wonder it's got so much goodness going on.  The fruit from the Old Vines is a delicate yet generous offering of dark berries that perfectly blends together into an almost savory berry cheesecake of sorts.  Perfect for before, or after a meal, and for some,  as a meal.  Even on Maui, in the most remote destination in the world, you can treat yourself and your loved ones to The best Wine and Cheese tastings available across the globe.
