Parting Shots

Cheese

Our founders will travel to Piedmont to attend Slow Food’s festival, which is dedicated to raw milk and natural cheese in Bra, Italy, from September 15 to 18, 2023. This fourteenth edition brings together herders, cheesemakers, chefs, and enthusiasts. The theme of this year’s edition is The Taste of the Meadows, emphasizing how raw milk from pasture-raised animals is crucial to sustainable food systems. https://cheese.slowfood.it/en/

Grape Expectations: Riesling

Our Grape Expectations column will feature Riesling, the aromatic, food-friendly white grape native to Germany and commonly found in France, Australia, and the United States. One of the few white wines that can age for decades. Often assumed to be a sweet wine, Riesling can run the gamut from super sweet to bone dry, but it always displays its signature racy acidity.
