"Herd It Through the Grapevine" is a semi-hard
goat's milk cheese with a washed rind. It is aged
from 4-6 months and made when goat's milk is
abundant in spring and early summer. The rind takes
on a deep purple hue from the locally sourced grape
table wine used as the wash. The pate is smooth
with sweet and mildly fruity notes. It finishes with a
subtle tang that lingers on the palate. Great with
dried fruit and chutney.
