Port is the world's greatest fortified wine, produced in the valley of the Duoro River, East of Oporto in Northern Portugal. Port falls into two broad categories: ruby ports, characterized by intense, red fruit and berry flavors; and tawny ports, distinguished by their mellow, nutty, butterscotch and caramel essences. This gourmet gift includes four cheeses that will complement both types of Port:
- Fourme D'Ambert: Cave-aged for a minimum of two months, made from raw cow's milk and has a tremendous, creamy, full-bodied flavor. (8 oz)
- Royal Blue Stilton: Long known as "The King of Cheeses", this blue is one of a handful of British cheeses granted the status of a "Protected Designation Origin" (PDO) by the European Commission. (8 oz)
- Agour Ossau-Iraty: Amidst the gorgeous rolling mountains of the Pyrenees, the natural geographic border dividing France and Spain, lie vast pastures providing fertile grazing for milk-giving sheep. It is from this unpasteurized milk that the Agour company, a family company steeped in tradition, creates this magnificent cheese. (8 oz)
- Wexford Mature Cheddar: Collier's Welsh Cheddar brings together the finest ingredients and a heritage of cheese making to produce a cheddar of unmistakable quality and character. (8 oz)
- igourmet.com Signature Cheese Serving Knife: Specifically crafted for us at igourmet.com, this multi-function cheese knife is the perfect tool to easily slice uniform servings of your favorite cheeses.
