A message from Juliet:

Ever since I tasted my first goat cheese in a small Parisenne wine shop I have been obessed with finding and tasting the worlds finest artisan cheeses.  To feed my obsession I created the British Cheese Awards, the Great British Cheese Festival and Jeroboams – my own Cheese & Wine Shop in London.  I have worked with King Charles, tasted Feta in Greece with Daniel Day Lewis and taught for 10 years at the University of Gastronomic Science in Italy.

So join me for a tasting of some of Te Awanga Estate’s finest wine along side some lesser known, quirky, New Zealand artisan cheeses and uncover the myths and misconceptions behind the art and science of matching cheese and wine.
