I’m so excited to be talking about wine and food pairings with my dear friend Elise Cordell, Champagne ambassador for GH Mumm and Champagne Perrier-Jouët! We’ll match three sparkling wines (two from Champagne and one from Napa) with a variety of cheeses (hence the “Whey Cool Pairings” in our event title). There’s no charge to join us, and Elise is offering a 15% discount on the wines (shipped anywhere in the U.S.) if you want to taste along with us.
The wines we’ll be trying represent the styles of both houses:
G.H. Mumm Grand Cordon, NV
Mumm Napa ‘Cuvée M’, NV
Perrier-Jouët Grand Brut, NV
I’ll include some cheese suggestions for each wine and we’ll explore what elements make a felicitous pairing, and what might cause discord when matching food and wine - no rules, just some revealing tips!

And here’s an insider tip - raid your kitchen and have the a lemon and some salt at hand to try a couple of easy experiments I’ll share!
Benvenuto Brunello, an event held simultaneously in eight cities worldwide, was the debut of the storied 2019 vintage of Brunello di Montalcino, Tuscany’s classic, iconic and all-sangiovese wine. I was the presenter for one of the three American debut tastings, and have the story here.
