Manchego, Artisanal. the famous Spanish D.O. sheep's milk cheese, is made exclusively from the milk of sheep grazing upon the plains of La Mancha, the land of Don Quixote. The Artisanal Manchego is made from raw milk and aged for several months. The cheese is nutty, sweet, and tangy with a firm texture. After 12 months it becomes tastier, saltier and excellent for grating. Manchego pairs well with roasted peppers and rustic bread. Try pairing this cheese with light crisp whites and light to medium-bodied red wines. |
