✦ Chambourcin
Dry, ruby colored wine with a full flavor and aroma. This 2011 Chambourcin was fermented in stainless steel and aged with oak spirals. This wine pairs well with Maytag Blue Cheese or Stilton Blue Cheese. Regardless of which blue cheese you use, let the cheese melt into a steak or burger while grilling and enjoy with a salad and baked potato. A bottle of this wine makes your meal divine. The Chambourcin grape is a hybrid that was introduced in 1963 by Joannes Seyve and that has gained acceptance, particularly in France’s Lorie region.
