One cheese on the loop, with something to drink beside
it, something for the driver, and the road either side.
The cheese
- Drink
- GewurztraminerAlsace on both sides of the plate. The wine's lychee aromatics meet the washed rind head on.
- Driving
- Ginger teaAromatic heat answers the rind the way the Gewurztraminer does.
- Eat with
- Boiled potatoes and caraway seedThe Alsatian way — caraway is served alongside, not in it, and it works.
A classic pairing — settled enough that it belongs to the region.
