Discover our award winning wines and food experiences at English Newsom Cellars! Toast and taste with a flight of five exquisite wines and an artisan cheese pairing.
It is widely believed among wine historians that this concept originated in the early winemaking days in France. Many cheese and wine varietals have grown up together, oftentimes on the same farm or within a small village. Thus, a complicated, nuanced culinary art has developed from this ancient practice.
