Comments about Windsor Red:

Initially, I bought a wedge of this just because I thought it was different and looked pretty. However, I'm now addicted after the first bite. This cheese is unique and very tasty. The wine doesn't overpower the cheese but gives it that extra kick of sweetness. If you serve this as an hors d'oeuvre... your guests will be enchanted. I will be ordering more.

Comments about Windsor Red:

Although the subject of an old Elton John song, I never gave elderberry wine much thought as I associated it with cheap fortified wines from the 60's and 70's. It does however make a wonderful addition to a cheese and I love that berry flavor. Just the right amount of sweetness.
