Jura Wines and Cheese

Whether a cheese newbie or dedicated turophile, we welcome you to our first Jura wine and cheese evening!
Join us for an informative and fun-filled evening as we explore the wine and cheese traditions of one of our favorite regions, the Jura of Eastern France, known for tall mountains and 80 pound wheels of cheese. Leigh Ranucci, an importer of our favorite Jura wines, joins Will in taking you through a journey of the region by way of pairing wine and several age profiles of Comte, along with some other delicious bites.
We will talk the basics of cheesemaking and sensory analysis, share stories of our travel with producers, and drink beautiful wine, all within our intimate (yet not intimidating!) cheese shop! We look forward to sharing our love for cheese and our experiences with you!
