Upcoming Events at Hahn SLH Estate Vineyard & Winery
February 10, 2012 - Fromage Friday at Hahn SLH Estate Visitor Center
Every Friday in the Visitor Center at Hahn SLH Estate we are featuring a complementary cheese & wine pairing to entice the palate, educate your pairing knowledge, and make new friends. The pairing will be during extended hours from 4-6pm.
This weeks featured fromage is the Gruyerre, Emmi of Switzerland. "Master cheesemakers since 1782, Emmi is the agent company for traditional coop of dairies and cheesemakers. This Gruyere is made just northeast of Lake Geneva in Western Switzerland. Aged in natural caves where the air and natural bacteria endow the cheese with a deep complexity, this cheese matures for at least a year. This cheese is smooth in texture and has rich, beefy flavors that are tempered by hints of apples and pears. Famously used in fondue recipes, this cheese melts fabulously well and is amazing in grilled cheese sandwiches, gratins, sauces, or just snacking."
